When they announced that #COP30 would be in Belém and all the logistical problems that followed, I was convinced it was a bad idea...
On 09/11 flying to Belém, the plane was packed with foreigners talking and laughing... as we approached landing, we could see the forest, silence took over...

Our recent paper @natgeosci.nature.com shows that over the Med, marine heatwaves are linked to subtropical ridges rather than atmospheric blocking, the typical cause of atmospheric heatwaves in central Europe.
The brilliant ECRs Giulia Bonino and Ronan McAdam led this work!

🌊🌡️The adverse effects of ocean warming combined with acidification on marine ecosystems can be mitigated by increased food availability. However, this is not possible when extremes of warming and high acidity co-occur with low net primary productivity, i.e., a decrease in food availability.

The extreme warming during the summer/fall of 2020 led to the largest bleaching event recorded along the Brazilian coast, with 85% of stony corals and 70% of zoanthids areas bleached in Rio do Fogo.

Marine heatwaves are 5.1 times more frequent and 4.7 times more intense since the records started in 1982, with the 10 most extreme summers/falls in terms of marine heatwave cumulative intensity and spatial extension occurring in the last two decades.

The PIRATA committee is currently facing the challenging task of determining which buoys in the array to keep in the water. This decision will disrupt the long-term series established in 1997.
What a sad way to show that science has no borders.

For many years, I have been involved in the Prediction and Research Moored Array in the Tropical Atlantic (PIRATA) Programme, and I can attest to this. PIRATA is a successful collaboration among the US (NOAA), Brazil, and France. However, its data are assimilated and used by many across the globe.

I have been receiving the sad news about massive NOAA firing.
I cannot explain how important NOAA is for science globally. The data and model outputs generated by NOAA globally allow researchers from countries that don’t have the funding or capability to develop those to do their own science. 🌊🧵

Climate change will affect all of us! Two weeks ago it was my turn.
Record-breaking rainfall in Florianópolis where I live reached 390 mm in 36 hours. A similar event in 1995, considered the worst extreme in history, was 165 mm in 36 hours.
We @wwattribution.bsky.social have released a statement.
