Bordeaux, France, has now recorded more days above 40°C in 2026 alone than during the entire 105-year period from 1920 (when observations began) to 2025. This is deeply shocking.

Really annoyed by journals sending out review requests and reminders on weekends. Just schedule them for Monday morning?

With "efficiency" people think about the engine thrust per amount of fuel. But airlines have an operational efficiency also depending on load factors, cabin layout (first class booh!) and aircrafts being used. We measure this in gCO2 emitted per revenue passenger kilometer. Some areas

Map of airports colorcoded by CO2 efficiency measured in gCO2/revenue passenger kilometer. North America has commonly inefficient flights, in Brazil efficient flights dominate, so in Europe. Africa has many inefficient in contrast to India and South-East Asia.

Yay! We got an exclusive feature from The Guardian on our paper, published today in Nature Comm Earth&Environment www.nature.com/articles/s43... Airlines won't like it but we suggest to get rid of business and first class. Why? Because that way more people can fly for the same emissions

Anyone knows how much of that can be attributed to the change to GPUs? 5 years ago some supercomputers had GPUs but not all, now it’s hard to find the CPU-only ones!

How much more efficient have supercomputers become over the last 5 years? Just analysed the top 100 of top500.org : 4x for the most efficient supercomputers in the world, what was top in 2020 is now at the bottom of that Green100 list. Total energy consumption has increased nevertheless

You think ripples in spectral models are weird? Yes, step functions in spectral models are represented with many "weird" oscillations. Sea level will be negative next to big mountains, etc. But that's just the equivalent of representing something smooth with little discrete steps, which arguably 🧵

Is it professionally acceptable to not have MS Word/Powerpoint/Excel etc and ask for other formats? Maybe just me but I find this software exceptionally fragile: A powerpoint presentation created with powerpoint cannot be opened with powerpoint with a hint to open it with powerpoint, wut???

Microsoft PowerPoint error message saying "Sorry, we can't open this presentation becasue we ran into a problem. To view or edit this presentation, open it in Microsoft PowerPoint"

Closed my spotify account as other music streaming services like Deezer pay 2x more to artists and don't invest into AI weapons like the Spotify CEO does. Consumer choices are important!

First attempt at writing a sea ice model 🧊🌊 Only uses sea ice concentration not thickness so there is not enough "memory" of thick ice to retain some sea ice cover during summer. Not bad for zero tuning though, I find! Will be in the next release of SpeedyWeather github.com/SpeedyWeathe...

Car drivers criticise cyclists for jumping red lights. If it’s busy or in any way potentially dangerous I 100% agree. But in other situations I also understand cyclists thinking: I don’t kill people, cars do, most road infrastructure (🚦🔄🛑⛔️…) is built to safe people and cars from cars (🤯) so I can go

Senior professors affiliated with NOAA had to withdraw their presentations at EGU in Vienna because they wanted to talk about climate. And travel on personal means. This is what fascisms looks like.

I'll be at @egu.eu 2025 next week in Vienna. You can catch me on Monday at 14:05 in Room 2.92 talking about "ClimateBenchPress: A Benchmark for Compression of Climate Data". I'll be at EGU the whole week so let me know if you want to chat about (neural) compression for climate or anything else!

It was always about market manipulation. I bet Trump tells all the billionaires in advance what tariff plus minus he’s going to announce and they just sell and buy accordingly in exchange for not criticising him.

How a multiparty democracy allows for fascist parties to rise but also controls them better because there are alternatives to the alternative. Trump was the only alternative to Biden.
