🗣️ A new ICOS Talk coming soon!
This edition from @horizoneu.bsky.social projects AVENGERS, EYE-CLIMA and PARIS explores remote sensing of the land biosphere to support quantification of #carbonemissions and removals.

Critical Atlantic current, the #AMOC, is significantly more likely to collapse than thought. New modelling study by Portmann et al. (2026) used four different ways to predict around 50% slowdown by the end of this century.

Forest carbon sinks were discussed at the @acccflagship.bsky.social #ACCC week, in a session attended by policy makers, forest industry & Christian Holzleitner from #DGClima 🇪🇺
Jaana Bäck presented studies with ICOS data, including stations Lettosuo, Hyytiälä (🇫🇮), Svartberget (🇸🇪)
(1/2)
Key takeaway: Natural carbon sinks are more cost effective than technological ones. Management can influence natural carbon sinks🌲

Sug på den: ”Omvandlingen av skogslandskapet har orsakat en kolförlust större än Sveriges fossila utsläpp sedan 1834, enligt en ny studie.” www.dn.se/sverige/skog...
Spring is here! 🌱 The growing season has started Europe, as shown by the levels of CO2 decreasing due plants starting to absorb more carbon at the start of the season.
This is shown in ICOS Curve, a tool compiling concentrations of CO2 from 38 ICOS stations in Europe.

🌊 The final quality controlled Ocean data release for 2025 is now available
Compiled and processed by ICOS OTC, the release contains quality controlled data for partial pressure of carbon dioxide (#pCO2) from 12 labelled ICOS Ocean stations.

🔥 1 million hectares burned in Europe last summer. Bigger than Cyprus. Today the EU launched a new integrated wildfire strategy — and EEA science is at its foundation: ec.europa.eu/commission/p... #Wildfires #ClimateAdaptation
The Earth’s climate is more out of balance than at any time in observed history, according to #StateOfClimate published today by World Meteorological Organization . The report confirms 2015-2025 the hottest 11 years on record.

Happy International #ForestDay! 🌳🌲 The ICOS network of greenhouse gas measurement stations currently includes 42 forest stations. Almost all of our 16 member countries have at least one forest station, helping us understand how different forest types across Europe absorb and store carbon. 🌎
We are pleased to share that we received a record 533 abstracts for #ICOS2026SC!
Abstract evaluation will begin soon - submitters will find out the results in June. Registration opens in May.
