Proud to be an MIT alum this morning

@ametsoc.org I'm leading a career-development course for 150 undergrads at UC Berkeley and would love to be able to refer them to the AMS Career Center ... but the internship listings are for last summer, with application due dates in early 2025. Is your career site broken?

In the midst of all the turmoil in science, some great opportunities at Berkeley now:
1) Miller Institute postdocs & visiting professorships,
2) faculty position in any Earth & Planetary Science field in my department,
3) faculty position in physical climate science in Env Sci Policy & Mgmt

Hi all, we're hiring an early career catastrophe research role in our group! Master's or PhD, flexible on area of specialization, experience in cat modeling not required. US only but remote is available, we've got a hybrid team in Boston, London, and scattered across US and UK.

Berkeley's Miller Institute offers postdoc fellowships and very nice visiting professorships every year, and has now opened its call for applications/nominations. This is a really great opportunity across all the basic sciences:

It is with deep sadness that I share the passing of my Ph.D. advisor, Jenni Evans. She was an esteemed scientific leader in tropical meteorology & computational science. She shared great strength & inspiration to follow my dreams.

Help our friends at the NSF:
Seeking scientists based in California who are willing to attest to direct harm caused by NSF firings.
If you’re in the science world, please RT this to widen the net— a lawsuit on the unjust mass firings needs these comments.

And I'm moving my infrequent social media presence here, since X will soon be owned by and feeding all its information directly to the head of a new federal agency. Regardless of my feelings for billionaire social media CEOs, at least they hadn't been able to arrest me. #DeepState #BigBrotherMusk

In a new paper led by Yi Zhang, we show there's a 70% chance of the tropics setting a new record this year for its highest recorded wet-bulb temperature, due to combined effects of El Niño + global warming.
