Hi there! I’m Jacob Warner, and I am a paleoclimatologist and archaeologist. I study past climates, mostly through the geochemistry of archaeologically sourced mollusks. I’m also interested in how people adapted to climate change in the past.

Hurricane Melissa which is en route to decimate Haiti and Jamaica rapidly intensified to category 4 storm. Rapid intensification is a hallmark of climate change, but that category is only a measure of its wind speed. It is also expected to bring up to 40 inches of rain

1/ ICYMI yesterday, from my colleague Danny Cusick: NOAA said over a month ago that it would fill 126 open positions at the NWS (since the start of the year, NWS has lost around 600 staffers). They still haven't advertised the jobs.

Republicans won’t defy Trump unless their constituents absolutely force them to. That means our job is to make Trump’s Tax Scam politically toxic. If you live in a GOP district, let your representative know they risk losing their job by defunding Medicaid and SNAP to make billionaires richer.

Most Americans frequently use federal science information. But few are concerned that cuts to federal science spending could affect their access to such information, a new poll finds.

Computer models have been accurately predicting climate change for 50 years
A research scientist found that many 1970s-era models were ‘pretty much spot-on.’ Today’s models are far more advanced.

If you see these little mounds this time of year in Eastern North Carolina, leave them be. They are not ants. They are little ground bees. Each mound has one little female bee. They won't stay in there very long so I try not to walk over them or drive over them. We need every pollinator.

A tricky thing about modern society is that no one has any idea when they don’t die.
Like, the number of lives saved by controlling air pollution in America is probably over 200,000 per year, but the number of people who think their life was saved by controlling air pollution is zero.

This checklist is shocking. A person can be declared an "Alien Enemy" based ONLY on communications with someone ICE says is a member, and nothing more.
6 points for texting a "known member of TDA" + 3 points for Venmoing or CashApping a "known member" = 9 points = TDA member = sent to CECOT.
