It is hard to overstate how critical @ncar-ucar.bsky.social is to climate science in the US and around the world. It's the beating heart of our field. Generations of scientists have trained there, and almost everyone I know relies on deep collaborations with NCAR scientists. It's end is unthinkable.

📢📢PhD position available!! 📢📢
"Improving future climate prediction through
modelling and data of Earth’s past"
At the University of Bristol, UK.

The project is base at the University of Bristol, one of the most beautiful cities in the UK!

Currently visiting @ncar-ucar.bsky.social for two weeks, as part of their affiliate scientist programme, working with the paleo modelling group, including @climate-z.bsky.social . Amazing views out of the back door of the lab!!

Top: Plot showing variation in the estimated slopes of the palaeolatitudinal biodiversity gradient through time across the Phanerozoic (including data from Europe and North America) for 1000 km grid cells. Slopes are estimated as the coefficient of per-cell, stage-level SQS diversity on absolute palaeolatitude for individual stages. Triangle data points meet quality criteria; circles do not. Red points are significant; grey points are not. A blue ring around a data point indicates a post-extinction interval. Horizontal blue shaded region highlights slopes close to zero. Bottom right: Plot illustrating the relationships between per-cell, stage-level diversity estimates and palaeolatitude aggregated across the entire Phanerozoic, globally. Data point colours indicate palaeolatitude zone: blue triangles, low; green squares, mid; purple circles high latitude. Solid black line is ordinary least squares regression line; dashed line traces the 95th quantile for each latitudinal band.

We are really pleased to announce a 3-year postdoc at Bristol to work on tuning a state-of-the-art CMIP7 model using paleoclimate data, and using the tuned model to make future climate predictions.
More details available from me, or here: tinyurl.com/mvx5wmet .
Closing date: 15th Feb

Analysis: The climate papers most featured in the media in 2024 - Carbon Brief Thousands of peer-reviewed journal articles were published over 2024, helping shape online discourse around climate change.

Well done to my amazing colleagues at Bristol, who have made it into the @carbonbrief.org 10 most talked about climate papers for the second year running. Good work @climatesamwell.bsky.social and Paul Valdes! www.carbonbrief.org/analysis-the...
