Fantastic review on the ocean carbon cycle and climate led by Laure Resplandy that pulls together impressive budgets and tackles some key narratives 🌊 www.science.org/doi/pdf/10.1...

🌊 The ocean absorbs >90% of Earth’s excess heat, and our ability to track it depends on a fragile global network of floats, ships and sensors. New research warns that cuts to the Global Ocean Observing System could make climate signals indistinguishable from noise. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Wow great to see an acknowledgment that climate change will intensify our extreme climate events. If only all elected officials realised this… perhaps there would be more action on climate change.

Global mean sea surface temperature anomalies (departure from average) so far this year ➡️ 2nd highest on record 🌊 Data from ERSSTv5 averaged over January to April.

Completely agree with this idea. A credit system for reviewing papers and submitting your own papers. I have colleagues who tell me that they don’t review papers as they don’t have time and yet they publish far more papers than most academics. For the system to work everyone needs to do their part.

Let’s hope they win and set the precedent that future coal mines and their expansion in Australia must take into account all emissions (scope 1,2 &3) and the impact on climate change. Mak it harder for the Australian government to approve them and be in the pockets of fossil fuel companies. 🇦🇺

Spiralling global temperatures (1850-2026) It is exactly 10 years since I first put this animated graphic of changes in global temperature online. #ClimateSpiral It instantly went viral. People watched it over and over again. It still offers the power to shock a decade on.

We have hit 20! I know there are loads more species (I am working my way through the wiki list), but this wont get us to 100. So -- I need to know if your lecture theatres, tea rooms, netball teams, whatever, are named after Sir David. Spread the word

It’s been a few years since Prof. John Chappell passed away. But a new biography of John has recently been published. He was a very talented scientist and artist.

I’ve led over 20 expeditions to the open ocean, chasing how currents are changing as our climate warms, only to find the answer lies at the smallest, most chaotic scales. Eddies are reshaping even the mightiest currents and bringing more extremes to coastal seas. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

My husband sent me this … lately most of my data has been different from expected. Which makes it more interesting… so now when I get an expected result I’m a bit taken aback. 📉📊🧑‍💻👩‍💻👩🏼‍🔬🔬
