The circulation cell that organizes during El Ninos across the equatorial Pacific Ocean #climate

Changes and accelerations happen now fast in ever more systems and regions... #climate #earth

MHWs and their mechanisms leading to their formation and persistence are now taking over the North Pacific temperature trend with the PDO with its negative and positive phases being overruled...

Highly interesting changes in the tropospause height and temperature Again a step wise trend change and recent acceleration Further noteworthy is that seasonal regional changes can be extreme in temperature and height. Another indication that the curvature of the troposphere becomes "wobblier"...

Continuous rise of the tropopause in the Northern Hemisphere over 1980–2020 "Northern Hemisphere (NH) over 20°N to 80°N to reveal a continuous rise of H over 1980–2020. Over 2001–2020, H increases at 50 to 60 m/decade, which is comparable to the trend over 1980–2000. #climate #Earth

Just interesting... Maybe could become important or not...

Its a highly important aspect of El Ninos and La Ninas - the tropics expand or contract... "Close to the tropics in the Pacific Ocean, this relates to a much lower tropopause height during La Niña, which corresponds to an apparent narrowing of the tropical belt." #climate #Earth

Climate warming is not only intensifying Weather events, but intensified W events intensify other Events even more The result are extreme E of such an magnitude that they develop not a long lasting impact on the climate system The faster we warm the climate the more non-linear the reaction will be

New update...

A update on tipping point science My two takeaways: that tipping points are also warming rate dependent is coming into focus Extreme events will continue to surprise us breaching old records by far margins that will be able to speed up/trigger tipping points www.youtube.com/watch?v=cUNX...

Southern Hemisphere marine heatwave update First picture 6 days ago, second 1 day, and the last from 2024, same date During December they normally start to form During December they normally start to form. I added a last picture from this year summer 2025-02-04, so you see the problem...

A pattern that emerges: Governments or ministers resigning after extreme events which caused more causalities than necessarily due to bad political decisions The day will come when the empire will be questioned as humanity is now driven into extinction Just continue current trajectories #Earth

What's more important: profits and world hegemony or the ozone layer? Guess, we know the answer... reentering “transition metals” [...] can create “long-term adverse effects on the atmosphere such as ozone depletion, radiative effects and changes in cloud formation, if no action is taken.” #Earth

New study shows that ocean warming (= #ClimateChange) exacerbates several negative effects of #nanoplastics on marine microalgae, particularly growth inhibition & cell surface damage. This could then lower algal carbon sequestration & exacerbate climate change. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

No finance for adaptation for the people - slowly the principle is becoming obvious... #climate #earth

Temperature anomalies averaged over the last month (left), 3 months (center), and 12 months (right) across the Northern Hemisphere... Data from @copernicusecmwf.bsky.social ERA5 reanalysis.

Getting hotter...

Its simple: Never fuck around with the oceans if you live on a water planet! What do we do? We fuck them in any way possible with all we've got A normal system develops the abilities of all, this one needs to stupidify us to be able to continue... #climate #earth

Here a nice Paul Beckwith video on the matter: #climate #earth

Areas with precipitation are shrinking while intensifying while high pressure is expanding And this is how this signal looks from an extreme events recurrence rates Noteworthy, the temperatures above 40°C how they increase. We could now also start to include a graph >50°C... #climate #earth

Next datapoint... #food #climate #rice

Concentration of wealth leads to social and political power increasingly preventing all what would be necessary for humanity to strive while deadlocking our trajectory towards extinction... Centralization of wealth and power is now in self-destruct mode...

This is important as it comes with atmospheric circulation patterns, NPP reductions, and fires...

This system is broke beyond repair The whole system is build on the destruction of everything while profits rise as to destroy is way more lucrative than to protect and restore Open fascism won't protect this system but ram it deeper into the ground

One afther another in the recent years... It's just starting to lift off... Northern Hemisphere ocean warming and intensifying SST fronts one main reason...

It's all way more interconnected than we thought... And the coupling between Earth's changing subsystems is intensifying... #climate #earth

Southern Hemisphere marine heatwave update First is 6 days ago, second from yesterday, and the third from last year. Currently, they are on track to beat last year - the real intensification should start in December... #climate #Earth

Gaza is much bigger than Hiroshima, much much bigger, and so is Israel's crime.

Nah we have now AI and soon robots so I say fuck it - irony off!

My #Arctic temperature graphics have just been updated for October 2025. New records were reached in my High Arctic and Atlantic Arctic regional sectors and close as well around the Greenland sector. ➡️ Check it out: zacklabe.com/arctic-tempe.... #DataViz #SciComm #OpenScience #OpenData

They are already in a debt spiral you morons! We live now in phantasia land... Heading full on into climate chaos with depts having already skyrocketed the last decades is just another example of why the current system is broke beyond repair #climate #finance #debt

Next one on the non-linear reaction of currents we are in the process to trigger: Sea ice loss and stratification will speed up the currents in the Artic (triple) and around Antarctica (60%) in a high warming scenario #Climate #Earth #Oceans

We get a non-linear signal in the global current system in the oceans... upper ocean speeds up, deeper ocean slows down, mainly due to stratification Now we have the first non-linear signal: eddy kinetic energy in the Kuroshio current intensified by 50% the last decade - Gulf stream 20% #climate

A striking example of how interconnected the system is: A tsunami created ripples high in the atmosphere... #climate #earth

This is important - is Bluesky now also complying? Gets ever more clear: we need social networks of we the people!

Tax the hell out of them!

Another non-linear signal in the Earth system: SSW events happen now regular over the Arctic breaking down the polar vortex 5-6 events per decade had been normal Just the last two winters we had 4-5 Now we have the next Starts now also Antarctica... #climate #arctic

Southern Hemisphere marine heatwaves update - difference the last 5 days How intense will be the marine heatwave signal in 2025/26 during summer?

Next study that we do not have a significant weakening of the AMOC till today The whole climate system is now collapsing or shifting into a feedback driven state. That is the real story... And AMOC collapse will have catastrophic effects, but till that happens it won't matter anymore much...

One of the main principles of global warming: The acceleration of the warming rate forces a rising number of systems into record states As a consequence the area affected increases non-linear at any given time... #climate #earth

Pole to pole ping pong... Additive or synergistic?

The acceleration of global warming means also the intensification of lows and highs with the jets in-between causing the meridional component of the general circulation to intensify while zonal flows are increasingly disturbed causing poleward warming extremes and mid-latitude weather chaos #Earth

We are warping the system which will enable a new system behavior... Currents, atmospheric circulations, weather whiplash events, sea surface temperature extremes, stratification signals, temperature jumps, cryosphere extreme events, sudden shifts in live support systems, name it #climate #earth

The six main principles through which the emergent tipping point of Earth operates: 1: The coupling between the systems is strengthening 2: Mutual amplification gains in efficiency driven by increasing "noise" in the system - intensification of variability

We are approaching a tipping point between the upper ocean and overlying atmosphere... And subsurface marine heatwaves play a large role as also their persistence increases even more than surface MHWs... #climate #Earth

Gets ever darker our outlook The albedo loss of the northern latitudes in 2023 could have been an outcome of smoke from wildfires reducing cloud cover (happens if the smoke is above the clouds) and the smoke could have reduced the albedo of the clouds Smoke reduces SOx cloud brightening #climate

We underestimated Southern Ocean outgassing by 40% around Antarctica >40°S "Substantially underestimated winter CO2 sources of the Southern Ocean"; www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

If our recent observational and model based knowledge is taken into account shipping emissions could have even strengthened the positive low cloud feedback of marine heatwaves as they evaporate cloud droplets in the upper boundary layer And SOx aerosols reduce cloud droplet size #climate #earth
