I'd like to introduce a new page on my website: U.S. climate indicator visuals (zacklabe.com/united-state...).

I only have a few basic variables so far, but I will be expanding this summer to add a range of metrics (e.g., ecological). I welcome suggestions! Hope this is useful, especially nowadays.

🌡️ #ShowYourStripes 🌡️

The science is clear. The world is warming at an alarming rate and Arctic and Antarctic are warming twice as fast, and sometimes faster, than the rest of the planet. These stripes show the stark reality of climate change.

The message? We’re out of time for delay.

A lot of regional variability in the pattern of #Antarctic sea ice concentration anomalies during the last month (May 2025). A particularly notable spot was in the Bellingshausen Sea where there was effectively no ice formation.

Data from @nsidc.bsky.social (nsidc.org/data/g02202/...).
Two polar stereographic maps side-by-side showing Antarctic sea ice concentration and its anomalies relative to 1981-2010 for May 2025. Red shading is shown for less ice, and blue shading is shown for more ice. More areas are below average than above. Antarctica is masked out in grey shading.
