Another result that continental hot temperatures, dryness, and large scale circulation patterns drive cloud cover - here for the US "Trends in Cloud Covers across CONUS (1980–2020)"; journals.ametsoc.org/view/journal... #climate #Earth

An update on the recent discussion on the Northwest Pacific marine heatwave and its drivers and what it means #climate #earth

Important: its a self reinforcing non-linear feedback driving ocean temperatures with regional hot spots like the North Pacific that is just starting to gain momentum... #climate

Methane is a powerful greenhouse gas, & scientists are racing to track where it’s coming from. New methane seeps have been found in shallow waters off Antarctica, adding to earlier Arctic discoveries. Beyond climate risks, these seeps also host rare ecosystems that may offer clues to life’s origins.

"Another result that increased stratification is an important driver for the expansion and intensification or marine heatwaves (MHWs) - here the example of a MHW near New Zealand" #climate #earth

It's all happening much faster than predicted This model error can be translated to higher rates of poleward heat Transport further intensified by midlatitudes heat extremes Maybe a main driver for the abrupt regime shift towards SSW events over the arctic Ever more signals that we are so fucked

‘Profound impacts’: record ocean heat is intensifying #climate disasters, data shows Oceans absorb 90% of global heating, making them a stark indicator of the relentless march of the climate crisis www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Love that sentence - oops: "Our findings have a bearing on exoplanet research, as they suggest that it may be harder to have a cloudy atmosphere with a stable climate than previously thought (Leconte et al. 2013), potentially reducing the chance of finding habitable worlds." #climate #earth

My new hero! And so true, these whiny little fascist bitches...

We enter now a novel #ocean state... It's so simple that even the greatest of idiots should understand it: if you live on a water planet never fuck up your oceans! And we do it big time... #climate #endgame

They are saying the quiet part loud now If the billionaires take over we will find ourselves in a very dark place Fun fact:this will also be the case for all the billionaires who are not as evil as these folks The concentration of wealth is now destroying humanity www.youtube.com/watch?v=ww7E...

The toxification of everything... "Atmospheric simulations attribute TFA to precursor gases. Mean observed TFA concentrations were 0.30 to 0.96 μg L-1 across 14 precipitation sites and 0.33 to 0.88 μg L-1 across 9 river sites in 2021–2023 – four-to-six-fold increase since 1996/1997."

www.scinexx.de?p=310598 Marine Hitze von 2003 wirkt bis heute nach Rekord-Hitzewelle im Nordatlantik hat Ökologie bis heute verändert. Dies unterstreicht, dass auch vermeintlich vorübergehende Klimaextreme einen langfristigen ökologischen „Regime Change“ auslösen können.

Observation that strong storms have a profound impact on the top layers of the atmosphere some >50 km high...

Heatwaves intensify fast in all systems and latitudes... Here the example of rivers

Not representative but still the numbers will be high... #climate

Next study that previous ocean heat uptake, redistribution/accumulation of heat in the upper 100m, and reduced clouds (warms additionally the upper ocean) triggered the warming jump of 2023/24 They attribute 92% of the warming in 2023/24 to the jump in sea surface temperatures. #climate

Next that more heat is being moved into the Arctic Ocean - but not through higher heat transport rates, as others discuss it But could be just heat loss The study is another indication that western boundary currents speed up as the North Atlantic current is a extension of the Gulf stream #climate

Now the preprint got published that on a global mean aerosols are not declining which makes it mainly a cloud feedback that drives the growing energy imbalance of Earth and acceleration of warming This makes it two studies with the same finding in terms of global aerosol trends #Climate #Earth

Slowly the voices are rising that we face here an existential threat... In my opinion global warming is not anymore quantifiable as too many feedbacks are now becoming wild cards... #climate #earth

Next worst case: lower tropospheric stability controls humid surface heatwaves and convection strength Allows moist heat buildup near the surface Lower tropospheric stability could abruptly increase on an event basis in a warmer climate enabling moist heatwaves suddenly to breach lethal thresholds

Gets ever more certain that we get here massive model errors in the making with a climate system going full tilt with models not seeing it... Oops... #climate #Earth

Next observational study that reductions in cloud cover are largely a feedback - this time over the continents where humidity levels control cloud cover... The ice gets thinner for humanity... #climate #Earth

Next large peak in an important system... Wonder if any of the elites understands how far we are now into the red area with warming lights flashing all around us in our space ship? The end of capital, what a time to life in... #climate #earth

Important to understand: the climate system particular of a water planet is controlled by circulation patterns As we warm Earth way too fast the reaction becomes now non-linear fast... Result: devastation! #Earth #climate

If correct this would make already two exceptional SSWs in 2025/26 season....

If you say so... AI is a scam as it is far from being AI The whole approach only creates a front in the form of a person pretending to be able to read a text which was internalized before It's a useful tool but nothing more... If there is one thing able to destroy capital it's capital

Next SSW event inbound... Would be second one in 2025/25... Next threshold breached it seems 5-6 SSWs had been normal per decade Since 2023 we reached a frequency of 2-3 events per winter season... It's a highly non-linear system...

We should have more respect for the system we are living in... #climate #earth

First time I read this number: "On average, clouds cover two-thirds of the Earth’s surface, clustering over the oceans. Of all solar radiation reflected back to space, clouds are responsible for about 70%." Important: its much more than just ice the 30% as only black surfaces reach 100%

Next confirmation: surface melt and frequent drainage events trigger non-linear changes... "Have the frequent drainages forced the glacier system into a new state, or can the system (still) return to a normal winter state in spite of these extreme amounts of water" #climate

Fascinating: even phages make cost-benefits desicions...

"What we witness now, is scientific reticence on steroids. Perhaps because IPCC was granted the position of extreme authority. But in science supreme authority is not granted to anyone. Galileo proved that." @drjamesehansen.bsky.social youtu.be/4-a-qeMyaPE

The extent of global sea ice cover will end the year at more than 2 million square kilometers below average 😞 Monitor at zacklabe.com/global-sea-i...

CO2 absorbing surfaces rolled out on a global scale will become decisive to reduce GHG levels fast with all we've got... Not much more warming needed that the cascading feedback reaction starts for real, from there on not many years left that we will be able to reverse it... #climate #earth

Beyond stilupid part XX... While we are heading straight forward into catastrophe in all regards I read such headlines... #Climate

We are approaching breaking point now... #cimate #finance #earth #ultrarich

Global SST went upward again Since some 18 months now the SST graph plays games with me. Always when I thought it weakens for real, it jumped upward again. When I though it would stay at record levels, it crashed again #earth #oceans #climate

All comes down in the end to ocean heat uptake - but should not come as a surprise on a water planet covered to 71% by oceans... Ocean warming controls surface warming...

Made a longer one on the SST, SST pattern effect driving global warming in 2023 Clouds are the leverage very important in regulating ocean heat uptake... #climate #earth

From there on it will get ugly fast as it will be as much a result of strengthening feedbacks as the jump will further reinforce all the feedbacks now coming into motion... #Climate #Earth

What fascinates me most in climate science: Near absolute silence on the discussion on the next temperature jump Guess it would be alarmism to discuss it widely and the implications One more temp. jump and we are fucked! So let's continue to pretend that the warming is not happening via jumps...

Only capitalism will be anymore able to demolish it... Taking anything else with it... "One survey of 1,576 executives conducted during the second quarter by research and advisory firm Forrester Research showed just 15% of respondents saw profit margins improve due to AI over the last year."

No shit... The last chapter of capitalism: fraud and scam economy...

The richest in the world go full fascism because they think it will protect their wealth against mind blowing inequality Fun fact: it's the shortest way to loose everything as they will loose control as their wealth is for the taking by corrupt fascist governments and their mostly poor agents...
