Agreed. I would already be happy if catering for meetings would become vegetarian/vegan by default.

For sure - the collapse of the Amazon rainforest as a global earth system tipping point got a lot of attention and Brazil in light of holding COP30 as well. But I assume that socio-ecological tipping on regional levels needs to be more in focus now.

I can offer a photo of the slide and a fraction of Tim Lenton presenting it

Agreed! This was also discussed during the event. Next years Global Tipping Point Conference will likely be in Malaysia, stay tuned.

Norwegians are very proud of A-HA for many reasons!

An example for a social tipping point is offering vegetarian/vegan food only during scientific meetings - „it almost becomes unacceptable to provide meat at conferences“ - quote Marten Scheffer during the #GTPConference

The amazing Larissa Van der Laan created this wonderful piece based on my abstract that I submitted to the #GTPConference. It perfectly captures threatened deep sea ecosystems and cold water coral reefs through gradual and abrupt global change that I describe in ESMs.

How would a lifeless ocean effect future carbon uptake and storage? Turns out: biology matters for shaping the course of climate change! Great paper led by Jerry Tjiputra and summarized in this Carbon Brief guest post 🌊

METEORv1.0.1: A novel framework for emulating multi-timescale regional climate responses Abstract. Resolved spatial information for climate change projections is critical to any robust assessment of climate impacts and adaptation options. However, the range of spatially resolved future sc...

We're excited about finally getting this one out in discussion. METEOR is a lightning fast time-evolving spatial pattern response model which can emulate any CMIP model, representing separate slow and fast climate responses to different climate forcers.

Interested in regime shifts in marine ecosystems? Check out our manuscript currently in review in Ocean Science on a method to quantify regime shift likelihood in multiple species across trophic levels. We use plankton recorder data collected in the North Sea for model validation.

Weather and climate data shown on this website and countless others are at risk.

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) is the U.S. agency responsible for global weather forecasting, hurricane prediction, ocean observation, and many other services vital to public safety. Its satellites, supercomputers, and research teams provide essential data that help us understand our planet and protect lives.

On February 27, the new U.S. administration initiated mass firings at NOAA. These actions are unethical and deeply disruptive to the talented scientists and engineers who dedicate themselves to the public good. The firings, along with expected budget cuts, have serious implications for the availability and quality of weather forecasts produced by the United States. They must be reversed immediately.

Much of the data on this website is downloaded directly from NOAA's servers. In this environment of uncertainty, access could be disrupted at any time. While I'll strive to keep all features on this website functional and switch to alternative data sources if necessary, some datasets have no substitute if they go offline.

If this concerns you, speak up. Share on social media. And if you're in the U.S., contact your representatives.

All websites that depend on NOAA data should display something like this.
