Thanks for having me & showing me all the really cool research you’re doing in Valencia!🙌🏻🌏

… we reconstruct temperatures & seasonality from a stalagmite collected in Arctic Siberia, dating 9Ma back. While global average temperatures back then were around 4.5 °C - similar to future high emissions scenarios - Arctic temperatures could have been as high as +11.1 °C (−12.3 °C today). (2/3)

An Arctic warming of > 18 °C far surpasses what models predict and holds vital implications for vulnerable Arctic permafrost soils. (3/3)

The Arctic is warming roughly 4x faster than the rest of the planet. How do we know how fast it will warm in the future? Models, alright, but palaeo-analogues from the deep past offer real data! In our new study… (1/2)

🌍 Fresh dataset of atmospheric rivers just dropped!
After 3 years of work, we proudly present PIKART — 8 decades of user-friendly global AR data.
We really hope it can help to better understand water transport & climate impacts 💨💧
Give it a go: ar.pik-potsdam.de

Great to see our work in @eos.org ! A good read for the evening! 😇 kudos to all our friends & colleagues that contribute to this ongoing endeavour - there is so much to learn! 🤩 together - always! @thomasopel.bsky.social @juvmcburst.bsky.social @pucicu.de @scitobias.bsky.social @leverhulme.ac.uk

Back to good old Austria Center Vienna for the European Space Agency’s Living Planet Symposium #LPS25. After a grand opening yesterday, I‘m curious to learn more about Earth Observation & discuss science! 🌎 🛰️

With its 21k attendees, #EGU25 can really feel a bit overwhelming at times😵‍💫 But it’s also an awesome opportunity to catch up with
science friends & check out loads of cool research! 🌍

Thanks to all attendees & everyone presenting exciting research in last Friday‘s first-ever #EGU25 session on Atmospheric Rivers! See you next year! #atmosphericrivers

Attending EGU25 conference?
Working on atmospheric rivers?
We’ll be stoked to have you joining our session! #EGU25 #atmosphericrivers #climate #EarthScience

A new paper led by Sebastian Sippel just appeared in Nature arguing that ocean temperature measurements in the early 20th century have a cold bias.

It's a fun story illustrating the process of scientific discovery, so let me talk about it a bit. 🧵

We Europeans need to practice survival in a rapidly changing climate - my opinion piece, focussed on Spain, but could equally have been written 3 years ago after the deadly floods in Germany . We've not learned enough & that costs lives and livelihoods. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...
