43. Arctic Research Consortium of the US (ARCUS) shutting down after budget cuts (Sept. 22, 2025)

Attribution of vegetation change to climate change: here we compared vegetation time series to simulations from a process model forced with observed and counterfactual (detrended) climate data. Trends in climate necessary for the model to emulate vegetation trends www.nature.com/articles/s41... 1/3

Speaking of, cool to see NASA listed as one of the Webby Awards most iconic companies in internet history today!

I'm happy to share a paper in Science Advances that makes the case for a weak land carbon sink, drawing upon JPL and Chloris biomass time series. To close the budget with a net land sink of 0.8 Pg C/y from 2000-2019, we propose increases in the ocean sink and decreases in fossil fuel emissions.

🦋🌱 Most people care about #biodiversity, yet we often underestimate how concerned others are about its loss. This “pluralistic ignorance” can silence people, weaken action, and make ambitious policies seem less popular.

In a new paper, we outline a research agenda to study and reduce this gap (1/2)

Deforestation is responsible for nearly 75% of dry season rainfall reduction in the Amazon rainforest since 1985, according to a study in Nature Communications. go.nature.com/3I2xPzr ⚒️ 🧪

Only a pre-print for now, but after 4 years of hard work I couldn't resist sharing this!

The Global Canopy Atlas: analysis-ready maps of 3D structure for the world's woody ecosystems

📜: doi.org/10.1101/2025...

Huge team effort led by the brilliant Fabian Fischer!

I had the same question since effectively all of my journal articles (need to confirm) show up when I search my name. Pre and post becoming a CS but also when working at DOE.

Missed the workshop?
“Bridging the Gap: Flux Data Meets Land Surface Models”
No worries !
Now, everything you need is available in one place — this blog:

The workshop materials (tutorials and lecture videos) can be found at the end of the blog post.

Enjoy :)

I'm very pleased on behalf of co-authors to be able to share this, just published, paper summarizing the @bburnedscience.bsky.social Fire Emissions Workshop in Nov 2023. MODIS has been critical to fire emission estimation for the past two decades & the paper reviews 9 widely used emissions datasets.

Interested in a small home solar install but my god it’s like a feeding frenzy out there as soon as you show any interest and the DOE resources put a target on your back, resulting in constant phone calls and texts. There must be an easier way to connect with local reputable companies. #solar
