A strong statement from the Director of CNRS Earth and Space about the dismantling of the National Center for Atmospheric Research: "a pillar of atmospheric and climate research is being torn down" @cnrs-insu.bsky.social @cnrs.fr @ncar-ucar.bsky.social

#NCAR is great for both research and outreach. While digging through my archives, I found this video I made of a small homemade tornado.

This is very bad news. For our NCAR colleagues of course, for climate scientists everywhere, and really, for everyone. I had the good fortune to spend two years at the Mesa Lab as an ASP postdoc, and it was one of the best scientific environments I have known.

Very interesting paper!

Les journées annuelles du GDR "Défis Théoriques pour les sciences du climat" auront lieu du 11 au 13 Juin à Toulouse, avec pour thème principal "Modélisation du Système Terre et Sobriété Numérique : quels avenirs ?". Plus d'informations et inscriptions: www.meteo.fr/cic/meetings...

We have a new preprint out about the impacts a transition to equatorial superrotation would have on Earth's climate, e.g. in terms of surface temperature and water cycle. First PhD paper of Tim Marino, with @drmichaelbyrne.bsky.social arxiv.org/abs/2504.06909
