A first year above 2C in the mid-2030s now looks plausible. 0.5C was first passed in 1980, 1.0C in 2010 and 1.5C in 2024. The 15-year trend runs at 0.42C per decade. The 2026 and 2027 points for the current El Nino are estimates. We're not remotely ready!

Cyclone tracks decide who evacuates and who stays safe. Most AI models trade accuracy for speed. This system does not. It beats the operational IFS ensemble on accuracy. Read the study: doi.org/10.1007/s003... #AAS #TropicalCyclones #AIWeather #Climatescience @springer.springernature.com

How well can we model light bouncing between sky and sea? A new CARE RTM model uses GPU power and smart scattering simulations to sharpen ocean and atmosphere data from satellites. Big step for climate science! doi.org/10.1007/s003... #AAS #RemoteSensing #ClimateScience

Wet regions. Land doesn't drive rain. Or does it? These findings challenge that assumption. Land surface shapes rain intensity and frequency across Asia's monsoon zones. Read: dx.doi.org/10.1007/s003... @en.nagoya-u.ac.jp #AAS #AsianMonsoon #AcademicSky #Seaandatmosphere

The pattern across #SouthAmerica this week looks typical for #ElNino with a few opportunities for rain & mountain snow in central #Chile, including #Santiago. Also, the wet pattern continues in NE #Argentina, #Uruguay, #Paraguay & far SE #Brazil.

Not all tropical rain is equal. Deep convection dominates in the warm pool. Shallow convection takes over in the eastern Pacific. And, under warming, deep convection wins everywhere. This research explains why. Read: dx.doi.org/10.1007/s003... #AAS #AcademicSky #TropicalClimate #GlobalWarming

Why do floods and landslides strike after a typhoon passes? Prof. Mengqian Lu explains it live from Shanghai during Typhoon Bavi. The storm weakens. The soil stays soaked. The risk doesn't leave. Watch: www.youtube.com/watch?app=de... #AcadeMicSky #ZJU #TyphoonBavi #HydroMet 🧵👇

Observational records since 1950 indicate La Niña-like Pacific warming; over 80% of CMIP6 models simulate the reverse (El Niño-like) pattern. This discrepancy is a principal source of uncertainty in tropical cyclone projections: doi.org/10.1007/s003... #気候変動 #TropicalCyclones #ClimateScience
