An impressive move to open data: ECMWF makes its entire real-time forecast catalogue open to all from 1 October 2025 www.ecmwf.int/en/about/med...

Finally, our unique dataset of combined water isotope and aerosol/INP observations from the ISLAS2021 field experiment at Andenes has been made public in the pangeaa database! Thanks to all who contributed, and stay tuned for the ISLAS2021 data paper! @erc.europa.eu

We have a PhD position in Meteorology open at the University of Bergen. Join us to study the moisture transport in extratropical cyclone families using reanalysis data, water tracer simulations, and stable water isotopes. Application deadline 24 June 2025: www.jobbnorge.no/en/available...

🧪Come join our team in Bergen, Norway

Overgang av vårt studieprogram til et 5-årig integrert master (siv. ing.) i Geofysikk - meteorologi og oseanografi ser ut til å ha falt i smak hos årets søkere - vi gleder os til mange nye studenter denne høsten! @bjerknes.uib.no www.tekna.no/magasinet/IT...

We are ready to test the #ISOSCAN'er kits for #citizenscience #snow sampling in Tromsø! They can be picked up at several locations, including the university, library, Tromsø Outdoor etc. More details isoscan.w.uib.no/isoscaner-hu... #Water4All #tourismresearch #ISOSCAN

April is #EarthMonth and #CitizenScience month! Join our #ISOSCAN @bjerknes.uib.no #CitizenScience snow sampling in #Tromsø until 1 May. Get started by picking up your sample kit at one of 6 location in town: isoscan.w.uib.no/isoscaner-hu...

Assembling the #ISOSCAN sampling kit @bjerknes.uib.no

Getting ready to set up the sampling kits for our citizen science snow sampling in #Tromsø. Inviting locals and tourists over the next weeks to bring back some snow from the surrounding nature to help better predict water extremes in the #ISOSCAN project isoscan.w.uib.no/isoscaner-hu...

#SIOS ( #Svalbard Integrated #Arctic Earth Observing System) has an opening for a very interesting position for a scientific integration and data officer to work at the interface between the research community and scientific data management:

New paper out! ❄️ Coastal Victoria Land, Antarctica, is a region of extremes—from the polar desert of the McMurdo Dry Valleys, to areas with much more snowfall nearby. We studied where the moisture for this snowfall comes from—and the weather patterns that drive it! 🌍 💨 (1/5)

Fine, kalde dager i #Bergen gir også dårlig luftkvalitet. Målinger av aerosoler ved Bergen-Florida foran #Geofysen ved #UiB viser at renere luft har kommet inn over natten. Det er varslet igjen høyere luftforurensing framover.

In the #ISOSCAN project, we co-design citizen science activities for sampling snow for #water #isotope analysis across Scandinavia. Project member @hydrodroplets.bsky.social presents a new design for collecting samples of the entire snow pack we test out this season: www.youtube.com/shorts/dNWMs...

The amount of water in the atmosphere hit a record high in 2024 with 4.9% above the 1991–2020 average. This trend heightens the potential for extreme rainfall events. Explore the Global Climate Highlights 2024 report: bit.ly/40kQpcz

Last week we had the last CHESS winter school, with the topic "H2O" - a perfect theme to take a scientific journey, connecting across the components of the Earth system with engaged PhD students and lecturers in a cosy cabin in the Norwegian mountains. geofysikk.org/2024/12/18/h...

Yes, the weather forecasts by AI are impressive, in particular in terms of their computational efficiency. But they still require all the current observations from ground to space for their initial conditions, and data from excellent physics-based models for training.

Satellite measurements of stable water isotopes are highly useful, but not easy to validate. In our recent paper, we use an isotope-enabled regional model in an innovative way to bridge the scale gap between airborne and satellite measurements, enabling comparison on a wider basis.

Our recently published study from the Iceland-Greenland Seas cruise in 2018 shows that the strong evaporation in the winter time in this region can over time induce a signal in the water isotope composition of the ocean mixed-layer.

A successful launch for the #EarthCARE satellite!

First conceived 30 years ago at University of Reading, it will gather vital information about clouds & aerosols which will help us improve weather forecasts & climate models.

Well done everyone involved!

Finally, the #CESAR campaign is going to start soon. @ncarucar.bsky.social's research aircraft C-130 is now on its way to Kiruna, Sweden, packed with scientific instrumentation to study Arctic clouds - including our own #ISLAS_project cold trap to collect water vapour for stable isotope analysis!

Our 2nd semester students in #VærHavKlima at U. Bergen built each their own little weather stations. Exciting how easy it is these days to build cool 'things' from scratch with some soldering and 3D-printing. An incredibly motivating experience for incoming students! t.co/r63K0d3PU9

Looking for a 3-year PostDoc to join our team at University of Bergen in the #ISLAS_project and #ISOSCAN to work at the interface between meteorology and hydrology. Use stable isotope models and data to study how Scandinavian mountains extract water from weather systems: tinyurl.com/imetb
