Excited to (finally) share my new paper on Pacific SST and western North America hydroclimate during the Holocene! TL;DR They are connected, CO2 and precession both affect hydroclimate. Thanks @xiaojingdu.bsky.social @meredithparish.bsky.social @baylorfk.bsky.social+others

The Influence of Carbon Dioxide and Precession on Western North American Hydroclimate and Pacific Sea Surface Temperature During the Holocene
A network of proxy records shows western North American hydroclimate and Pacific sea surface temperature co-evolved during the Holocene The western North America became wetter while the eastern e...

Big up to @rdzombak.bsky.social for bringing eyes to this story. 🧪

So many people beyond my little cohort of fellows are impacted by slowdowns at NOAA. America is rapidly losing footing as a leader in climate science and we all are paying the cost.

New Science Advances paper on Plio-Pleistocene northern African hydroclimate! Tl;dr the wet summer monsoon = summer insolation & the dry winter monsoon = global ice volume

Paper here (www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...), Brown press release here (www.brown.edu/news/2025-06...)
Fundamentally unchanged northwestern African rainfall regimes across the Plio-Pleistocene transition
The northern African summer monsoon was unaffected by global cooling at the end of the Pliocene 3 million years ago.

Happy to end my paper drought with my first postdoc paper on concurrent megadroughts in the southwestern regions of North and South America. Check it out!👇

Excited to present my work at #AGU24 on decadal-scale sychronous pan-Pacific hydroclimate extremes over the last millennium! Stop by and learn about what I've been up to lately at Lamont!
