It was a privilege to attend the Overshoot Conference at @iiasa.ac.at! We had really insightful interdisciplinary sessions on such a fundamental challenge for climate science and policy. Lots of food for thought & work to do! 💡 Also, I'm really grateful to have received the Poster Prize Award! 🏅😊
🎬 And that’s a wrap on the #OvershootConference! A huge thank you to our Scientific Steering Committee, Organizing Committee, and every single speaker and participant whose insights, questions, and collaboration made this event such a success.

I was very happy to attend the Cello conference in Hamburg this week! 🌊
One day full of scientific discourse and networking: We used our time at the CLICCS Retreat last week to share the latest research and gather our forces for the next funding phase. Also, we honored our new Köppen Award Winner Youssef Ibrahim - congratulations!
In our new paper we discuss how communication of post-net zero climate changes needs to improve and go much further than global average temperature @chrisd-jones.bsky.social @sarahinscience.bsky.social @21stcenturyweather.bsky.social www.nature.com/articles/s43...

🌡️ Europe’s #heat extremes won’t stop, even at net-zero. Each year of delay locks in hotter and more frequent extremes for centuries. Mediterranean heatwaves could even be 30x more likely if the Paris Agreement is reached ten years late. 🧪 iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1... @edualastrue.bsky.social
Fantastic colloquium today by @eleanorfrajka.bsky.social on the state of knowledge of AMOC observations 🌊 It’s incredible & fascinating how far the field got in the last 20 years 💡 But also, how much there is left to understand & the need for more collaborative AMOC community 🤝

Despite staying below 2024-levels for most of April, daily global temperatures reach a new record for this time of the year 📈🌡️
Unprecedented temperatures for this time of year 🌡️ After a couple of weeks below 2024 levels, global mean surface air temperatures reached a new 20th March ERA5 daily record, with 14.29°C 🥵 Credit: C3S/ECMWF
It was a huge honour to attend today’s symposium for the 50th anniversary of the Max Planck Institute for Meteorology! 🎂 It’s so fascinating to see how important the institute has been for climate research, and also very exciting to look at what’s still ahead! 👏🏻
Although global mean temperature has cooled down slightly with respect to March 20th, it's now three days in a row (March 20th- 22nd) with unprecedented record temperatures for those days of the year 🌡️🌍🌊 Credit: C3S/ECMWF @copernicusecmwf.bsky.social
