New research demonstrates that waves breaking near shorelines release large amounts of sea spray aerosols—boosting both cloud-seeding particle numbers and airborne particulate mass.

NASA’s iconic Goddard Institute for Space Studies—home to Jim Hansen and hundreds more scientists, creator of the GISS model and keeper of the global temperature record—has been evicted from its longstanding NYC office above the “Seinfeld” restaurant.

Why? The government told them to move out.

#MeetOurScientists: With the help of a cloud sampler, Aiden Jönsson is able to investigate the particles inside the clouds. Important to better understand aerosols and their interactions with clouds - and how future climate and weather will impact our lives.

Hej Langley, I and a lot of @catchscience.bsky.social will also be at EGU! We will also screen our #ARTofMELT documentary at the EGU GeoCinema. See you there!
For the first time, I'm heading to EGU this year (and after, the WCRP meeting). Will anyone else be there that wants to talk IGAC? We should connect if so!

If you have the chance to join a @faradaydiscussions.rsc.org conference, do it! It's an excellent event, where submitted papers are discussed lively and in detail by renowned scientists. I loved it and learned a lot!
Day 2 of @faradaydiscussions.rsc.org on *Atmospheric Chemistry in Cold Environments* in full swing. Cool concept: Fresh & new publications are intensively discussed & comments/questions of the expert audience are published together with the final publication. #CATCHscience

By definition, numerical weather models require international data. The atmosphere knows no geopolitical boundaries: any model that begins and ends at its country’s border is unable to generate reliable predictions until after a weather system crosses its boundaries. Which defeats the purpose!
