NSF Update Funding curve overall. A little bit of progress in the past week, but only a little bit. Now by Directorate... 1/11

A line curve showing number of awards for fiscal year 2026 compared to fiscal years 2021-2025 across NSF. The fiscal year 2026 curve lies well below curves for other fiscal years.

Was your train delayed or cancelled this weekend? Mine was. Do you crave research that speaks to this particular experience? Look no further. In a new paper, @xinmingdu.bsky.social and I quantify how much rail safety and operations are affected by the weather.

A screenshot of the first page of the linked published article from the Journal of Public Economics.

A study in Nature Climate Change quantifies the potential for extreme heat events in Europe to generate mass mortality and projects tens of thousands of excess deaths. go.nature.com/483zJc3 🧪

This is figure 2, which shows temperature–mortality relationship across Europe.

For those who want a figure! "... before 2003, sequencing a hot day after another hot day can nearly double the mortality effect of that hot day ... the compounding model yields an [Aug. 2003] death toll that is closer to the total ... than the standard model ..."

NEW: The Trump administration proposes nearly $1.7 billion in cuts to NOAA that, if passed, could decimate weather and climate research, including funding to nine California institutions. The @sfchronicle.com has obtained a White House document detailing the proposed budget cuts. Read it here:

NOAA grants provide funding to nine cooperative institutions in California. Several branches of the agency could lose hundreds of millions of dollars.

Wildfire smoke routinely exceeds national air quality stds. Officials can seek exemptions for smoke events, but thats getting more complicated as smoke becomes more commonplace. They can also make steeper cuts to other sources of pollution — but that may not work if smoke events continue to ⬆️.

I was halfway home from the airport when this guerrilla poetry caught my eye on the M60 this evening. Fitting label for a city bus.

Photo from the inside of a city bus looking out, focused on the narrow windowsill, in which a label has been pasted reading “THIS MORTAL COIL” in all-caps. The label is red with raised white letters, like would be made from an old style label-maker one might have found at an elementary school in the 80s.

Even if they weren't so deadly, climate change increasing the habitable area for mosquitoes is terrible because they are extremely annoying.

Infographic of The World's Deadliest Animals showing Number of people killed by animals per year. Mosquito is first at 725,000, followed by human at 475,000. Then it's snake (50,000), dog (25,000), and then a bunch of animals at 10,000 or below: tsetse fly, assassin bug, freshwater snail, ascaris roundworm, tapeworm, crocodile, hippo, elephant, lion, wolf, shark.
