I've updated my El Niño forecast plume with the latest April data (ECMWF, NMME, CFSv2, Canadian models). Its now looking like it might end up giving 2015/2016 a run for its money in terms of strength, with a peak of ~2.6C in the ENSO3.4 region by end of year: dashboard.theclimate...

SRTI Actions in 2025 – Part 1 Actions matter! Scientist Rebellion Turtle Island rose to many of the challenges of 2025, showing up to challenge the climate backsliding, the attacks on science, and the rise of authoritarianism over the year. Here's a rundown of over forty ways SRTI Rebels turned…

Soil microbes grow, respire, die. Because their biomass eventually becomes necromass, and necromass can be stabilized in soil, growth rate emerges as a powerful predictor of soil carbon: www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Developers of curriculum - what is your go-to place for scientific illustrations? When putting slides together I'm constantly web searching for grainy images of biomolecules and trees, or making janky powerpoint roots and hyphae. Any tips or is this how everyone does it?
