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.

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.

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...

A new paper by Kaitlin Naughten. Sad but not surprising.
"How do you tell a bad news story? The conventional wisdom is that you’re supposed to give people hope: to say that there’s a disaster behind one door, but we can avoid it if only we choose a different one. What do you do when your science tells you that all doors lead to the same disaster?"
