Here is a factsheet on what is currently known about Birchgletscher, the Swiss glacier that catastrophically collapsed on 28 May 2025, following heavy debris loading from Kleines Nesthorn.
Our thoughts are with all those most deeply affected.

If we would remove what stops:
- smart women from science careers.
- insecure geniuses from publishing
- hard working people doubting themselves constantly
-people from being who they are
What world would it be ?

What better way to spend three days in July than by coming to Manchester for this year's @rmets.org Annual Weather and Climate Conference? 😁
Please consider submitting an abstract – deadline 14 February.
We look forward to seeing you there! More details: www.rmets.org/annualconfer...
🌍 Join our AI Weather Quest, an AI/ML competition for sub-seasonal prediction which is now open.
This international competition endorsed by the @wmo-global.bsky.social harnesses artificial intelligence and machine learning to improve sub-seasonal weather forecasting.

#SLF researchers have used #satellite data to optimize their models, which they use to predict how much #snow there is and when and where it will melt. This progress is important in order to be able to warn of #floods and inundations in good time.

Lots of people have asked me about the Met Office coming to Bluesky. So here we are! It’s a bit of a test feed at the moment but we plan to ramp it up. Do follow.
There's also a comprehensive list of >200 common science-y sounding myths and science-based responses at skepticalscience.com
However, climate denial isn't actually about science, even though that's how it often seems. It's about solution aversion, and any excuse that will enable it. That's why...
On the subject of countering misinformation about both climate change and weather modification, the Met Office maintains a useful resource here. Should you want to tackle any nonsense yourself it provides some authoritative material to draw on. www.metoffice.gov.uk/weather/clim...
Have you listened to the British Antarctic Survey's new podcast series yet?
In this episode we spoke about the challenges of communicating the science of the climate crisis
It was a really great chat (if I do so so myself 😂)

Showcasing the tremendous loss of glacier ice in recent years requires creativity. #artforglaciers is a new exhibition series dedicated to the topic. For detailed info on the program, check the link below! 👇❄️

Want to work with us? We are looking for *Postdocs in Climate Modeling and Data Science at ETH Zurich* to work on global climate models, analysis of model results, the intersection of climate scenarios and impacts, or machine learning/data science.

The June issue of #RMetS Weather is now online! This is a Special Issue celebrating early-career researchers, including prizewinners from the 2023 RMetS Early Career & Student Conference. Plus, all the research articles are Open Access ✅ Check it out ➡️ rmets.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/toc/14778696...
The Swiss Permafrost Monitoring Network released the results for 2023: after two years with little snow and very hot summers, the Swiss permafrost remained warm in autumn while the ground ice content continued to decrease. See more results at: scnat.ch/en/uuid/i/0e...
Thanks for yesterday's fascinating seminar, Maciej Besta! Not only a renowned computer scientist in #parallel #computing 💻, but your journey to #Siberia and tales of first ascents were truly captivating! 🏔️🥶
"Wir müssen uns anpassen" ist das neue "Klimawandel hat es immer schon gegeben":
The five flavours of climate denial by @katharinehayhoe.com:
1. It’s not real.
2. It’s not us.
3. It’s not bad.
4. We can’t fix it.
5. It’s too late.

Lots of fun and very useful information at the @slfdavos.bsky.social Mountain safety course today. Fieldwork can come - we are prepared! 💪
Der Wetterstation in Hintergräppelen steht das Wasser bis zum Hals: über 130 mm Niederschlag/72 h haben die Senke gefüllt und sind der Sensoreinheit von @decentlab.bsky.social bedrohlich nahe gekommen. Auf das Bad haben dann sowohl das Gerät als auch ich schlussendlich verzichtet.
🫖 Teatime in @BugNet_research! Lots of green an roibos tea is packed and shipped to our collaborators to test the importance of aboveground insect🐛 , fungal pathogens🦠 and molluscs🐌 for decomposition 🍵
One month until #ShowYourStripes day!
On 21st June we encourage everyone to show their stripes and start a climate conversation with family, friends or colleagues.
We will be projecting the warming stripes onto major landmarks in London!
Download your local stripes here: www.ShowYourStripes.info
How hot was 2023 where you live?
The warming stripes for each country, and many cities, are now updated!
See www.ShowYourStripes.info, which includes a new interactive map.
