"Those most impacted by climate change must be able to define and prioritize their own research agenda". Read our new editorial www.nature.com/articles/s41... and take a look at the collection of articles on #weather and #climate extremes: www.nature.com/collections/...
Climate research in the Global South - Nature Communications
The consequences of weather and climate extremes are felt disproportionately by some of the most disadvantaged populations of the world. Gaps in data and research perpetuate these deeply rooted inequalities and must be overcome.

Was asked to do a short and sweet @nature.com News&Views piece for a very cool new attribution study. Go check it all out!
Using years of experience in attribution science, a comprehensive study that links heat waves to individual emitters (ie fossil fuel producers) has just been published by @yannquilcaille.bsky.social et al. A systematic step forward as highlighted in my @nature.com News&Views article:

Heatwaves linked to emissions of individual fossil-fuel and cement producers | Nature
The emissions of leading fossil-fuel and cement producers have been systematically linked to particular heatwaves. Three scientists discuss the methodology behind the result and its potential impact on climate-liability court cases.

A great success story of #CitizenScience.
Five years ago today, most historical UK monthly rainfall observations were not available to scientists.
But the 66,000 pieces of paper containing the data had been scanned.
With covid lockdown approaching we saw an opportunity to transcribe the data.

A great perspective piece by Timo and colleagues on how we can be more prepared for unprecedented weather.
We made a short video on our paper 'how to stop being surprised by unprecedented weather' 👇
Our new Nature Communications paper, led by Timo Kelder with coauthor Lisette Klok and an incredible team, explores how we can anticipate extreme weather before disaster strikes and build resilience to its impacts.
