We welcomed the Joint UK Land Environment Simulator (JULES) community to Space Park Leicester this week for the Annual Science meeting where we discussed lots of exciting advances (and challenges!) in modelling the land surface environment.

Great poster presentation from @shrijanap.bsky.social and I’m really proud to see how far she’s come during her PhD! She’s grown so much in confidence, presenting her excellent research on wildfire anomalies at ESA #LPS2025

The "less vulnerable" high latitudes that are experiencing the highest rates of warming through Arctic amplification? *sigh*

Cuts to #science of >50% at NASA and >75% at NOAA would end US climate and space science research. NASA cuts are '...an "extinction level" event': arstechnica.com/space/2025/0... "At this funding level, Office of Oceanic and Atmospheric Research is eliminated...": www.science.org/content/arti...

Preliminary data suggests that the global average increase in atmospheric CO2 concentration in 2024 will be a record. Not just a little record, but 25% higher than the previous record. (This is the global average, as opposed to Moana Loa) gml.noaa.gov/ccgg/trends/... 1/

I think Nature's position is completely fair. However, to be consistent, they also need to be happy with "Hey ChatGPT, create a cheque to pay Nature's APC invoice and send it to them" ;-)

physics of climate impacts 101: - Stuff gets hot (worse heatwaves) - Hot air holds more water vapor (heavier rainfall) - Hot air is thirstier air (higher drought risk) - Warm water is hurricane food (stronger storms) - Hot water expands and hot ice melts (sea level rise)
