I'm not sure folks have realized just how crazy the second half of 2026 and 2027 will be for global temperatures – on the back of a record-smashing El Niño event. Here is my latest estimate of where both years will end up compared to global temperatures since 1850.

🧪🌿What happens when your “comfort zone” shifts uphill? For many plant species, that’s already reality. Mountains are biodiversity hotspots and new research highlights how climate warming is pushing plants to migrate upslope in search of suitable temperatures. www.sciencenorway.no/climate-chan...

Running up the hill – Climate change is forcing plants to move upwards

OPINION: Mountains are important recreational areas for us humans, where we can relax or challenge ourselves on bikes or skis. But mountains and their grasslands play a crucial role for nature in many...

🧪 Is it okay to use generative AI in academic writing? Eline S. Rentier explores the ethical implications in this open-access article. Read her thoughts on GenAI and the FAIR principles in science, as well as how GenAI can also be an effective tool - if learned how to use 👇

To use or not to use: exploring the ethical implications of using generative AI in academic writing - AI and Ethics

The rapid emergence of open-access generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) has sparked a heated debate with polarising views on whether or not it is ethical to use GenAI for academic writing. In th...

Dreaming of a white christmas? Not in this climate! Watch as BCCR director @kikkikleiven.bsky.social joins members of the Bjerknes Choir in a remake of the christmas classic White Christmas - with a fun climate science twist!🧪

Sigrid Passano Hellan works on how machine learning and AI can be used in climate research. "It is quite possible that weather forecasting will be generated by AI, but we still need researchers to determine when the models are accurate and when they are not." 🧪 bjerknes.uib.no/en/article/n...

A game changer in weather prediction: 'Significant investment in the field'

In just a few years, AI has revolutionized weather prediction, performing much faster than conventional models. One of our newest members at the Bjerknes Centre wants to contribute to the development.
