Thrilled to share a few highlights from our team's outstanding presentations at the 30th Australian Meteorological and Oceanographic Society 2024 conference in Nurrawal country, Canberra! It was great to see our PhDs and academics present their work across various themes.

goddammit #AMOS2024 not like I had a SQUILLION deadlines for this week or anything

Huge congratulations to Forest Tut who was awarded best student poster at #AMOS2024! In his honours work at @ccrc.bsky.social Forest investigated links between climate modes of variability and hail-prone conditions in Australia, supervised by me and Andrea Taschetto.

Honoured to work with so many amazing women in science. Just a sample of the awesome women at the #amos2024 conference today, celebrating international women and girls in science day on Sunday 11 Feb.

This afternoon at #AMOS2024, I'm convening a session on severe thunderstorms along with co-convenors Salomé Hussein, Harald Richter, and Rob Warren. Come along to hear about lightning, storm environments, thunderstorm asthma, hail, rain, and more. 2pm, room 3!

We have a #HEPEX session on forecast verification at #AMOS2024 today. I will post about the talks, as is my custom!

Dangerous climate tipping points will affect Australia. The risks are real and cannot be ignored We don’t yet fully understand what global climate tipping points mean for Australia. But we know enough to conclude the impacts of passing one or more tipping points must now be considered.

A report on the risks to Australia from global climate tipping points has just been released at #AMOS2024

A summary has been written by CCRC's Andy Pitman for the Conversation 👇

For those at #AMOS2024 interested in thunderstorms - this afternoon I’m presenting on recent work looking at projecting hail frequency changes globally. Session 41 starting at 16.30!

Happy to be in Canberra this week for #AMOS2024. There is such a lot of great science to hear about and so many amazing colleagues to catch up with! Pic is rain over Lake George from the bus.
