No actual scissors or glue involved 😉 – meteorological reforecasts can be post-processed and combined into long continuous time series, suitable for hydrological simulation and flood estimation, here using ~10'000 simulated years at hourly resolution. Paper in NHESS: tinyurl.com/2fu7uzsp
🏔️💧 #OurChangingMountains are the world's water towers. #ClimateChange is disrupting the flow. A new Perspective in Nature Climate Change shows how changes in the #mountain #WaterCycle cascade downstream, affecting irrigation, groundwater, shipping, #ecosystems, & more. 🔗 Read more: bit.ly/4kOHcBP

[1/2] We’ve released a new version of the factsheet on #Birchgletscher -- the Swiss glacier that catastrophically collapsed on 28 May 2025 following heavy debris loading from Kleines Nesthorn -- and some first field impressions that we were able to collect yesterday 🗂 polybox.ethz.ch/index.php/s/...
Was the Birch Glacier #Blatten landslide due to climate change? Some thoughts here: www.antarcticglaciers.org/2025/05/birc...
Birch Glacier and Blatten Landslide - AntarcticGlaciers.org
The collapse of Birch Glacier and the devastating landslide that impacted the Swiss village of Blatten occurred as a result of supraglacial landslides.

A study in Nature Food assesses the future climatic suitability of global croplands for 30 major food crop types, quantifying the changes in potential food crop diversity given climate conditions across four global warming levels. https://go.nature.com/3Dp5LEk #foodstudies 🧪
🌾 Climate Change Is Shrinking Crop Diversity A new study finds that 52–56% of global cropland will lose crop diversity as climate change pushes food production away from low latitudes. 🔗 nature.com/articles/s43016-025-01135-w #SciComm 🧪 #FoodSecurity #ClimateChange 🌎
