It was a privilege to attend the Overshoot Conference at @iiasa.ac.at! We had really insightful interdisciplinary sessions on such a fundamental challenge for climate science and policy. Lots of food for thought & work to do! 💡

Also, I'm really grateful to have received the Poster Prize Award! 🏅😊

I was very happy to attend the Cello conference in Hamburg this week! 🌊

Fantastic colloquium today by @eleanorfrajka.bsky.social on the state of knowledge of AMOC observations 🌊 It’s incredible & fascinating how far the field got in the last 20 years 💡 But also, how much there is left to understand & the need for more collaborative AMOC community 🤝

Despite staying below 2024-levels for most of April, daily global temperatures reach a new record for this time of the year 📈🌡️

What better way to prepare for #EGU25 than to calculate the mean temperature in Vienna during the conference for each year since the @egu.eu was established 🤓📈 Considering the current weather forecast for next week, this edition we might have a record year 🌡️

It was a huge honour to attend today’s symposium for the 50th anniversary of the Max Planck Institute for Meteorology! 🎂 It’s so fascinating to see how important the institute has been for climate research, and also very exciting to look at what’s still ahead! 👏🏻

Although global mean temperature has cooled down slightly with respect to March 20th, it's now three days in a row (March 20th- 22nd) with unprecedented record temperatures for those days of the year 🌡️🌍🌊

Sea surface temperatures for March 20th are below 2024 values but are still the second hottest ever for this day (20.94°C, 0.40°C anomaly wrt 1991-2023)🔥🌊

SATs spatial signal has large temperature anomalies over Central-East Asia, Eastern N. America, North-West Africa, & Eastern Weddell Sea coast 🌍

Here are the anomalies w.r.t. 1991-2020. The new daily record is 0.78°C warmer than the baseline average for this day, 0.05°C warmer than the previous record for the 20th March 📈

Unprecedented temperatures for this time of year 🌡️

After a couple of weeks below 2024 levels, global mean surface air temperatures reached a new 20th March ERA5 daily record, with 14.29°C 🥵

We just got the chance, at the MPI-M/@cenunihh.bsky.social joint seminar, to listen to Jochem Marotzke, director of the MPI for Meteorology, discussing the 1.5°C goal. These were his main points 🧵👇

Last time, we invited @lisampmunoz.bsky.social, author of the book "Women in Science Now". During her visit she not only shared her knowledge with us during her talk, but she also met separately with both ECS and senior scientists to help us address the existing inequalities

Yesterday, I had the pleasure of attending, along with a few hundred other climate scientists in Hamburg, the colloquium from @geomarkiel.bsky.social's Prof Mojib Latif on the question of an AMOC slowdown 🌊
What were his main takes on the topic? 👇

Lately, even sunsets seem to remind me of @edhawkins.org’s warming stripes 🌅
