🌟 "We’ll see bots doing research on their own. They’ll be a standard part of teams, join meetings, make suggestions, and creatively advance research topics," says Dr. Christopher Kadow, AI expert at DKRZ.

☁️ 🔍 Understanding #clouds better is not just a scientific curiosity – it’s key to predicting our climate futures. Meter-scale sims by Rafael Pistor and Juan Pedro Mellado explain why turbulence within the boundary layer increases with sedimentation. 🧪 agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1029/...

Bye-bye 1,5 Grad? Die unbequeme Wahrheit 2024 war global zu heiß: 1,5 °C überschritten. Ist das Klimaziel gescheitert? Harald Lesch analysiert, was das bedeutet – und was jetzt zu tun ist.

Das 1,5°C Grenze ist gerissen. Was jetzt?

In der neuen Folge von Terra X spricht Harald Lesch über die Folgen der Erwärmung und den Wandel zur Klimaneutralität. Dabei zitiert er auch den Hamburg Climate Futures Outlook, die zentrale Studie unseres Exzellenzclusters CLICCS

In Trinidad & Tobago, climate change isn’t seen as a major issue – despite coral bleaching and sediment changes. Locals say it’s just a political topic. 🏝️ Beate Ratter @uni-hamburg.de researches small island resilience. More about her work: www.cliccs.uni-hamburg.de/about-cliccs...

Next generation global models reveal new spatial details of temperature extremes
YouTube video by CEN Climate Visualization Laboratory Next generation global models reveal new spatial details of temperature extremes

@cenunihh.bsky.social climate visualization lab has created this nice animation of the resolution effect on climate extremes! 🤩 Comparison of CMIP6-like 100km and the new 10km for the example of TXx (hottest day in the year).

Resolution matters: Extreme temperatures in e.g. Indian cities can be underestimated by up to 10°C, a paper by @lukasbrunner.bsky.social‬ shows. High-res climate models (<10 km) reveal that important details about extremes are hidden at lower resolutions. iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1...

New paper in ERL! We study the importance of resolution for the representation of climate extremes.

We use a new generation of km-scale models to show that many important details about temperature and precipitation extremes are hidden at CMIP6-like resolutions.
