The Mauna Loa Observatory, home of the iconic Keeling Curve is at risk of shutdown. A new Conversation piece by CCRC's Alex Sen Gupta, @katrinmeissner.bsky.social & @timraupach.com explains why this matters for climate science. Don’t miss it. theconversation.com/mauna-loa-ob...

Mauna Loa Observatory captured the reality of climate change. The US plans to shut it down
Cutting data climate collection – as the Trump administration is now trying to do – is like breaking a thermometer to avoid knowing you’ve got a fever.

Key climate wild cards like tipping points and abrupt shifts are still missing from many models. A new piece by CCRC’s @katrinmeissner.bsky.social & Steven Sherwood explains why accounting for these uncertainties is essential. Read the full piece here: www.unsw.edu.au/newsroom/new...

Climate models are powerful, but do they miss some wild cards? 🌥️ Prof. @katrinmeissner.bsky.social and Steven Sherwood from CCRC explain that carbon feedbacks & tipping points could accelerate warming faster than we expect.🌍💨 More details: www.unsw.edu.au/newsroom/new... #ClimateScience #CarbonCycle

Simulated ocean oxygenation during the interglacials MIS 5e and MIS 9e
Abstract. Recent studies investigating future warming scenarios have shown that the ocean oxygen content will continue to decrease over the coming century due to ocean warming and changes in oceanic c...

Comedian Nish Kumar helps Dr Fredi Otto spell out the actual risks of climate change, pulling zero punches, and using highly unscientific language throughout. Part of an ongoing project to help the climate science cut through to the public. climatesciencebreakthrough.com youtu.be/CnITUQVEqLQ?...
