Climate.gov Home Science & information for a climate-smart nation

Welcome to Climate.gov & thanks for following us! Let us introduce ourselves. We provide timely & authoritative scientific data & information about climate science, adaptation, & mitigation. In short, our mission is to provide science & information for a climate-smart nation.

Hallo Bluesky!
Wir sind die Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft. #DFG Als Selbstverwaltungsorganisation der #Wissenschaft in Deutschland fördern wir erkenntnisgeleitete #Forschung. Hier erhaltet Ihr Infos u.a. zu Förderangeboten, Ausschreibungen und Anträgen. Wir freuen uns auf den Austausch!

Watching the fight to save Mt.Wilson Observatory. So much gratitude for the firefighting teams. This is considered the most important scientific observatory of the 20th century. #eatonfire #mountwilson

I read that the awful fires in the LA area have now reached #mountWilson. The observatory there is wonderful, it should be a world heritage site - it’s where Hubble discovered the expansion of the universe. I hope with all my heart that it survives, and that the firefighters there are safe. #

Wildfire climate connection Climate change, including increased heat, extended drought, and a thirsty atmosphere, has been a key driver in increasing the risk and extent of wildfires in the western United States during the last ...

ABC, NBC & CBS dedicated about 16 minutes of airtime last night to the California wildfires without once mentioning climate change.

Since the news failed do it's job, here's a short summary of the role of climate change and wildfire risk:

If you've ever been frustrated by trying to access data from satellites like #Landsat or #Sentinel2, tune into our very first #OpenDataCube community talk next week by Caitlin Adams: how to easily load satellite data for anywhere on the planet using the #OpenSource #odcstac Python package! 🛰️🚀

If you’re at #AGU24 this week, check out this poster on Thursday by PhD student Janis Klamt in my group on Improving the boundary layer height with machine learning! agu.confex.com/agu/agu24/me...

It is always mind boggling at how massive @agu.org is every year. This is just one session of the poster room, which changes over twice daily for the duration of the conference. #AGU24

one of my Twitter bangers from 2021, reproduced here, with minor editing:

I've been collecting "lessons I've learned communicating climate on Twitter" over the last 8 years and finally thought I'd write a 🧵. This is mainly aimed at younger scientists, but others might find it useful.

On the way home from attending meetings of the DLR quantum computing initiative. Thanks to the organizers, it is exciting to see how hardware and software projects on quantum computing are progressing.

This is very cool. I’ve never seen this visualization. The magic of migrating birds - at a global scale.

It's great to see science migrating over here - @scottehensley.bsky.social posting the results on BlueSky and promoting the BlueSky post (but not the results) on X.

This is the way to do it.

NEED SOME GOOD NEWS?

The EU now generates more electricity from wind and solar than from fossil fuels.

Would you like to work on cutting-edge science in an extremely relevant field? We’re looking for a postdoc to explore how to accelerate #climate models with #quantumComputing. The position is located at the German Aerospace Center‘s Institute of Atmospheric Physics in Oberpfaffenhofen near Munich.

Broken Record Temperatures hit new highs, yet world fails to cut emissions (again) UN environment programme 。

this is a bloody great name for a climate report

Graph showing daily temperature anomaly hitting peak of 2.06°C on November 17th, 2023 for the time period starting from 1940 to 2023.

There's a deep sense of sadness and loneliness seeing this record shattering graph.

November 17, 2023 was the first day in recorded history when the earth's surface was a whole 2°C hotter than pre-industrial times. Yet, there's barely any chatter about this staggering breach.

This will be my first actual post on this platform.

I want to highlight the recent paper by Naughten and others, here: www.nature.com/articles/s41...

This is a really important paper, but I want to mention a couple of minor caveats.

@danirabaiotti.bsky.social, could I please be added to the What's Science feed?

September 2023 was not only the warmest September on record by a staggering 0.5°C margin, but at 1.82°C (3.28°F) above the 1850-1900 preindustrial average, it also set the record for the largest monthly temperature anomaly ever recorded.

This chart shows the biggest drivers.

Me (a dark-blond tall woman) and Eshita (black-haired woman) in front of a black board at the university, happy after her successful defense. She is wearing her PhD hat with pictures, particle string made of wooden pearls and pipe-cleaner vortices to represent turbulence.

Very proud of my PhD student Eshita who defended her thesis on the Emergence of collective effects yesterday at the University Gießen. 🎉

Here’s a second shot of the eclipse where you can see “Baily’s beads”… the sun shining through the mountains and valleys on the moon.

Would you like to help climate scientists?

If so, today we launch our latest #WeatherRescue project.

Join other volunteers to transcribe lost weather observations. The mission is to recover pressure measurements taken in Oxford between 1828-1860.

Herzlichen Glückwunsch. So kannst Du dann zwei Mal feiern!

Hallo, ich bin Mierk und arbeite daran, Klimamodelle mit maschinellem Lernen und eventuell/perspektivisch mit Quantencomputern zu verbessern.
