Today, we published a study long in the making on how upper and subsurface tropical Pacific waters responded (and maybe will adjust) to warmer global climate. Here’s the story of how we got here after 15 years. many authors but shout out @jfarmersalmanac.bsky.social

Unexpected decline in the ocean carbon sink under record-high sea surface temperatures in 2023 - Nature Climate Change

The ocean carbon sink strengthened in previous warm El Niño years due to reduced CO2 outgassing in the tropics. Here the authors show that the ocean carbon sink declined in 2023 despite record-high se...

Being an engaged, but not overbearing, parent is getting harder by the day. Of course this should be regulated and the AI bears some responsibility. Horrendous story.

It did work fine - except of the end of last season. Hoping it will be better this season …

Unfortunately not - am up in the lakes!
