The order is the latest move by the Trump administration to assert control over US science go.nature.com/3H6IxVr

So now, regardless of the scientific merit of your grant proposal, a Trump appointee with no specified qualifications gets to decide whether to fund it or not based entirely on how it aligns with the Trump administrations policy goals…seems real bad.

"A climate nonprofit is planning to revive a key federal database tracking billion-dollar weather disasters that the Trump administration formally stopped updating in May. The database - which was produced by NOAA - is set to return this fall as a product of @climatecentral.org."

Breaking: US shortage of cherries since so many were picked for the DOE ‘critical’ review of climate science.

Nat Geo would kill for legit science-driven adventure like they found in “For Winter,” over content less credibly grounded in pursuit of knowledge +humans pushing limits. Instead they’ve (Disney?) gotten cold feet & deeply disrespected my colleague Ali & her family. defector.com/why-did-nati...

See interviews from lab alum Ben Riddell-Young and PI Ed Brook in this Mother Jones article on the future of ice core research.

🚨The Trump Administration is proposing devastating cuts to key national agencies in Colorado that play a vital role in protecting our country, including through cutting-edge research on wildfires, droughts, and more. Senator Bennet and I are fighting back against the attacks on NOAA, CIRES & CIRA 👇🏾

Problems don’t exist if you don’t see them! 😐

Funding for ice core research is at risk. Ben Riddell-Young, a CIRES postdoctoral researcher in NOAA GML, shares why ice core research is important for understanding past and future climate change. “There’s questions that we don’t know we should be asking yet.” www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

About 20 years ago, researchers drilled a 3,260-meter ice core in East Antarctica. Now, scientists are using it to uncover new insights. 🧪🌊

@noaa.gov just released the 2024 CO2 growth rate and it doesn’t look good. It is more important than ever to continue monitoring how and researching why GHGs are changing and what these changes mean for our climate system. @climate.noaa.gov

To the world: We are fighting back. Our movement has been silenced by the media here—but we are not backing down. This is what our streets looked like across multiple cities. Tomorrow, there will be more of us! Raise a glass to freedom. —With love, Your American allies.

My friend from the NOAA lab that brings you the Keeling Curve wants that world to know that things are horrible inside NOAA.

We have an exciting opportunity for postdoc to join our group at @bas.ac.uk and take part in two big ice core projects: www.beyondepica.eu and @fetch4.bsky.social. Package includes: mugs, stickers, maps, trips to Copenhagen, Grenoble and (maybe) Greenland. bas.ciphr-irecruit.com/applicants/v...

Having fun with new lecture on: Wendt et al., 2024, Southern Ocean drives multidecadal atmospheric CO₂ rise during Heinrich Stadials | PNAS www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/... Riddell-Young et al., 2025, Abrupt changes in biomass burning during the last glacial period | Nature doi.org/10.1038/s415...

Happening at the NOAA/NIST entrance in Boulder, CO today. Spread the word!

New lab account! Please share this post to help us connect with our network. We are a lab at Oregon State University headed by Dr. Ed Brook and Dr. Christo Buizert using ice samples to study past climate. See coldex.org for info on our search for old ice. #science #coldex #oregonstateuniversity

Important paper in Nature today about collapse of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet. There is a positive isotope anomaly at Skytrain Ice Rise during the last interglacial, consistent with what we found in our high-resolution water-isotope simulations when WAIS collapses. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

I'm thrilled to share our new @nature.com paper! We present ice core methane isotope data revealing that past abrupt climate changes likely triggered surges in wildfires, simultaneously driving rapid methane—and possibly CO2—rises 🌎🔥 Read it here 👉 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

🚨 New paleoclimate paper published in Nature investigates ancient methane trapped in Antarctic ice. ⬇️ Learn about the wide-ranging results from CIRES & Oregon State below. 👏🏽 Congrats to Ben Riddell-Young & his team, which includes REID CLARK from INSTAAR's Stable Isotope Lab

During the last glacial period, rapid, repeating shifts in temperature & rainfall continually altered environments around the world. A new study led by CIRES' @benryoung.bsky.social finds past wildfire activity tracked these abrupt changes. https://buff.ly/40nA6eY

@tinyicybubbles.bsky.social always making the best animations!

Other than us (see right panel), what causes the fastest increases in CO₂ and the strangest bumps in CH₄ in the ice core record (see left panel)? @benryoung.bsky.social's new paper may have the answer and it's literally 🔥. www.nature.com/articles/s41... 🧵👇

Big climate shifts from paleoclimate record (Heinrich and D-O for the paleonerds) may have been associated with *90–150% increase in global wildfire extent* which produced a fair chunk of carbon cycle shift associated with those events. Bazinga.
