How often and how severe will future #droughts be? And how well can climate models simulate them?

Our new paper by Klara Middendorf together with colleagues from @gfz.bsky.social. We use #GRACE satellite #gravity data to evaluate drought events in climate model simulations.

If you are asking what kind of science we can afford, you've got it wrong. It's the other way round: What kind of ignorance & data gaps do we want to accept? Read how political intervention in the US jeopardises science & data by @susannebuiter.bsky.social 👇

“What data gaps and ignorance can we afford as a society?”
Political intervention in the US is jeopardizing scientific structures and data. Among other things, this affects global measurement networks on

During today's #EGU25 plenary meeting the new @egu.eu division presidents were inaugurated. I am glad to hand over the Geodesy Division (@g.egu.eu) to Roelof Rietbroek (@drstrawpants.wobbly.earth) into the absolutely best of hands. 🙂 Roelof, have fun & good luck! This will be great!

An impressive number of volunteers contribute to making #EGU25 possible.

I can really recommend getting involved with @egu.eu, as it is not only (a little bit) of work, but also (a lot of) fun!!

EGU reaffirms a broad diversity of people as a central part of EGU's vision and as being essential for cutting-edge research. Thank you for this statement, @egu.eu. So important.

This #InternationalWomensDay EGU also recognise the way that diversity in science includes many marginalised identities, which often intersect with & compound the barriers to science for women & people across the gender spectrum.
