How should decision-makers address extreme weather hazards when considering complex climate risks? At #EGU26, Ben Newell, @vitusbenson.bsky.social, @janasillmann.bsky.social and I are convening a session on interdisciplinary approaches. Abstract deadline 15 Jan! www.egu26.eu/session/57683
Vitus Benson on atmospheric transport and inverse modeling of CO2. #aicc #eurips #eurips2025
Our preprint is now live and open for discussion on Open Research Europe!

David Greybeard, a wild chimpanzee, gets a handout of bananas from author Goodall, who studies the apes under a National Geographic Society grant. This scene near her camp represents a triumph for Miss Goodall; at first the animals fled if she came within 500 yards. Knapsack holds camera and notebook. She carries a whistle in her pocket to summon searchers in case of accident in the rugged Tanganyika hills.
Had never read Jane Goodall's original 1963 article in Nat Geo on the wild chimpanzees in Tanzania until now. It's a wonderful blend of science and journalism, and well worth your time.

Excerpt from proposed NOAA budget showing zero funding for Climate Laboratories and Cooperative Institutes
Proposed NOAA budget zeros out ALL climate laboratories and cooperative institutions.
GFDL, NSSL, GML, etc.
This appears to also end the US greenhouse gas sampling network, including at Mauna Loa, the oldest continuous carbon dioxide monitoring site on Earth.

So @esa.int invited to watch their new Biomass satellite launch, and it's one of the most amazing pieces of science I've seen

🚨Preprint alert 🚨
Why limit our view to a single concept when neurons potentially encode multiple concepts? 👀
Check out 🔎PRISM🔎, our new multi-concept interpretability framework for LLMs.
Congratulations to @lkopf.bsky.social and the team!

In general i agree, i do wonder though, don‘t you think in this case its not so bad because they do not produce a global map, but just one for england, and they do use a lot of survey samples from all over england?
How long does it take until we detect forced signals in global and regional land carbon fluxes?
And can we use dynamical adjustment to reduce the noise and shorten the detection time?

New paper from our group!
Winkler & Sierra propose a new path forward to Impulse Response Functions (IRFs) for Earth system modeling—capturing time- and state-dependencies critical for understanding carbon–climate feedbacks.

📯Calling all AI x Climate researchers!
The CMCC Workshop on AI for Carbon (June 30-July 2, Lake Como) just opened their poster submissions!
The venue and list of speakers are absolutely stunning 😍

It‘s not just that the CO2 curves tell us how much CO2 is rising, but crucially, with the global network (I guess ~50% from noaa stations), we can estimate how the ecosystems and the ocean are responding to this increase. Loosing this would be like going back 30yrs in time…
Must-read @thebulletin.org article by Eric Morgan & Ralph Keeling: The Keeling curve, which has continuously tracked atmospheric CO2 levels for *67* years, has always been vulnerable to funding ebbs and flows—but under Trump II, is facing its most dire threat yet

Come by! 😇
Great @riskkan.bsky.social symposium and working group kick-off at @iiasa.ac.at yesterday.
In case you are at @egu.eu feel free to reach out to me or @marleenderuiter.bsky.social to learn more and get involved.

the threat to long term observations to me seems the worst of this all. It will be difficult for europe or china to step in on this one
Wow this looks cool! Now I want to be a student again :D
Congrats!!
Congrats!!
How AI may improve Early Warning Systems. Curious to hear your thoughts!
The Trump administration is planning to cancel its lease at a government laboratory in Hawaii, a site where scientists support key observations of surging greenhouse gas levels in the atmosphere, according to a list obtained by Democratic members of Congress and shared with The Post.
Just heard that Trump is putting an end to atmospheric monitoring site NY67 that is run out of my lab. This is one of the oldest NADP sites in the US, continually measuring acid rain and other pollutants since 1977. Closing it down is tragic.
