Great discussions continue here at #ICOS10!

PIs from the ICOS domains discussed ‘a day in the life of an ICOS PI’ ☁️🌲🌊

Their work is done in pursuit of excellent science, a core priority of ICOS’s stakeholders as raised in the ‘Science and its Stakeholders’ panel discussion.

Day 2 of the ICOS 10-year anniversary week kicked off with the Super MSA – the first cross-domain meeting of ICOS Atmosphere, Ecosystem and Ocean MSAs.

A huge thank you to the presenters and participants for the discussions, and to the MSAs and chairs for organising a great programme.

📢Global Carbon Budget 2025📢

Fossil CO2 emissions continue to rise in 2025 while the terrestrial carbon sink recovers to pre-El Niño strength.

The key findings are covered in two reports this year:
* ESSDD (preprint): essd.copernicus.org/preprints/es...
* Nature: www.nature.com/articles/s41...

The Swedish combined Ecosystem Atmosphere station @hyltemossa.bsky.social hosted by @lunduniversity.bsky.social is one of the forests, where additional sensors for measuring #fAPAR have been installed.
Recent installations from the @horizoneu.bsky.social project #NUBICOS are helping enhance use of ICOS data for the remote sensing community.

Additional sensors for measuring #fAPAR were installed at several ICOS Ecosystem forest sites across Europe🌲

The Global Carbon Budget 2025 report is out today, which warns that the remaining carbon budget to limit global warming to 1.5°C is “virtually exhausted.”

Thank you to the ICOS community for their work in this global voluntary effort.

“For a city to truly tackle its greenhouse gas emissions, it must first know what it’s up against,” says Dr Werner Kutsch, Director General of ICOS.

Science gives cities the tools to turn climate goals into measurable progress.

We reached the end of the pole, the sun lit part of the crown is out of reach for our clipper. So we needed to deploy an alternative method to retrieve branches for the @icos-ri.eu nutrient and leaf area/mass analysis.
If someone has a drone for branch sampling, we are happy to test it next year.
