New paper alert! We look at the impact of MJO, ENSO, and blocking on North Pacific jet forecasts. From the role of MJO+ENSO teleconnection interference to the difficulty of forecasting blocking events, we take a deep look into understanding what drives forecast skill changes. doi.org/10.1175/WAF-...

The Influence of Subseasonal-to-Seasonal Modes of Variability on Medium-Range North Pacific Jet Stream Forecasts

Abstract The state and evolution of the North Pacific jet (NPJ) stream exert considerable influence on weather conditions across North America. The NPJ is modulated by several multiscale processes dur...

The Merlin Bird ID app will soon allow users to contribute data to monitor bird populations and aid conservation efforts. The project at Cornell University that produced the Merlin Bird ID app was funded by NSF’s Directorate for STEM Education (EDU), which was gutted by the Trump regime. 🪶

NIH grants have been under political scrutiny since early 2025. But what does the screening process actually look like? What is being flagged? I spent a month digging into leaked docs and emails. We've published the 235-word list that are being flagged by an internal AI tool. And so much more. 🧵

Last Friday, the Trump White House announced new rules that would give oversight of federal grants to senior political appointees. The proposal also bans certain foreign collaborations and cuts support for publishing costs. The current system of indirect cost reimbursement was left unchanged.
