National Academies of Science panel finds that: The EPA was right in 2009 (when it found that climate change driven by society’s emissions of greenhouse gases are endangering human health & lives), and that everything we've learned since has only made it more right.

Things have changed since 2009: We’re more certain about the problems.

Our paper is out today in @aguadvances.bsky.social 🥳! My coauthors and I use a simulation spanning the Last Interglacial (~130,000 - ~115,000 years ago) to show how changes in Earth's orbit impact atmospheric river behavior and the ensuing impacts on the Greenland ice sheet. 🧪🥼⚒️❄️

🧵
Atmospheric River Impacts on the Greenland Ice Sheet Through the Last Interglacial
Atmospheric rivers are dynamically coupled to orbit through latitudinal shifts in wind belts and seasonal shifts in moisture availability High latitude moisture controls the frequency, intensity,...

Day 4, #ICP15 , panel discussion on Tropical Monsoon Climate
On stage Pedro DiNezio @triptychphrases.bsky.social @edhathorne.bsky.social AD Singh River Shen and @antacl.bsky.social

Having a great time at the International Conference on Paleoceanography - great talks on past climate. Shoutout to under appreciated poster here at #ICP15 on how to look cute and take naps during monsoon rains

🚨 New Paper Alert! 🚨

We reconstructed past ocean salinity in one of the largest Subantarctic Mode Water production centers on the planet: the southeast Indian Ocean. We found a rapid increase in SAMW salinity during the Last Deglaciation.

Where did this salt come from? We argue the deep ocean. 🧪🌊
Elevated shallow water salinity in the deglacial Indian Ocean was sourced from the deep - Nature Geoscience
Increased salinity of Subantarctic Mode Water during the initial phase of the Last Deglaciation could have enhanced deep water formation in the North Atlantic, according to proxy records from a sedime...

🧪 CRITICAL UPDATE: The House draft version is now out.

✅ Like the Senate's version, there's no cut to NASA's budget.

❌ There's a 23% proposed cut to NSF's budget.

🧪 BREAKING (good news): Senate subcommittee says NO! to Trump's proposed slashes to NASA & NSF funding.

Today, the subcommittee said to keep NASA + NSF funding at $33.9 billion, the same as in FY24.

See 7:15 below. Full Senate appropriations committee meets tomorrow about it.

🌀 Why is it still so cold in winter?

Despite warming trends, the US still gets hit by brutal cold snaps. A new study links these outbreaks to shifts in the stratospheric polar vortex: high-altitude winds that can steer winter weather far below.

The Secretary of Commerce's new policy requiring his personal review of all NOAA contracts over $100,000 is directly harming American science. 🧪

How do I know? Because this morning, twelve of America's rising leaders in climate science (including myself) were furloughed.
