I'm happy to report that the recent paper written by my former student Qin Qin Kong, part of his dissertation work WBGT, trying to develop a more solid theoretical understanding, is a Highly cited article in 2025. agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/share/TUPBHE... The credit is all Qin's.
Postdoc position in Oceanography and Paleoclimatology at the University of Oxford - shorturl.at/yTblW
The role involves exploring the role of ocean circulation in setting and responding to equator-pole temperature gradients over the Phanerozoic.
Deadline is 17 April 2026.
As @triptychphrases.bsky.social showed, these summer temperatures on the California margin can have important implications for summer precipitation (extremes) in the south/west US iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1...
Applications are now open for the Agnese Haury Visiting Scholar & Trainee Fellowships at the Laboratory of Tree-Ring Research - more information here: ltrr.arizona.edu/fellowships

Check out the new version of my climate science textbook. Free, accessible and online. Let me know what you think. open.oregonstate.education/climatescien...
Really excited to see this paper out!! Led by @vtcoop.bsky.social we show that if you use cold and warm paleoclimates together, you can reduce uncertainty in Earth's climate sensitivity by quantifying the pattern effect and more precisely constrain future climate change www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...
The deadline for graduate student applications for paleoCAMP 2026 (Paleoclimate Training in Climate Archives, Models, and Proxies) summer school is this Friday, January 9th! paleoCAMP is completely free for all students selected to attend paleoclimate.camp/apply
Excited to share our new paper (w/ @aakashsane.bsky.social @baylorfk.bsky.social) where we used the CESM-LME and information theory to understand Pacific decadal variability! 🌊

Excited for this paper to be out! With the collaboration of met services from Central America, we evaluate in detail the biases in gridded products that arise from the underlying station data, and the effect this has on the apparent emergence of regional drying trends. Thanks to all the co-authors!
Exciting news! Student applications for paleoCAMP 2026 are open! Are you a graduate student working on any aspect of past climates or environments? Apply to be part of our 2-week summer school in the eastern Sierra Nevada! More details here: paleoclimate.camp/apply
Coupling biological models and our Community Earth System Model (CESM) helps scientists to better understand ecosystems, especially those in Antarctica!
We're hiring! I'm recruiting a Postdoctoral Research Associate in climate & paleoclimate modeling of the tropical Americas. Come obsess over the tropical rain belt with me! :) Please share w/folks who may be interested. Ad here: wustl.wd1.myworkdayjobs.com/en-US/Extern...

🌊 In 2012, CGD’s Aixue Hu showed how closing the Bering Strait in models affects Atlantic currents. Today, Science revisits this idea, asking if a giant dam could help keep Europe warm. Why it matters: ocean gateways, tipping points & bold ideas all collide. 🔗 lnkd.in/gS_sHikw

Congratulations to @dustybowl.bsky.social on being awarded the Piers J. Sellers Global Environmental Change Award from the @agu.org!
Huge congratulations to Ed Cook for receiving the @agu.org Revelle Medal, which 'recognition of outstanding contributions in atmospheric sciences, atmosphere-ocean coupling, atmosphere-land coupling, biogeochemical cycles, climate or related aspects of the Earth system.'
Congratulations to @drspeedydee.bsky.social on the Nanne Weber Early Career Award from the @agu.org!
With Rice University, a new project called the SCI-SWIM will help our Community Earth System Model trace where water comes from by focusing on stable water isotopes that give clues to the origins of water, from ice sheets to the ocean and everything in between.
