    NASA Is Losing Its Climate Expertise
    "
    "Dr. Kate Marvel: “I just resigned from NASA. It breaks my heart to leave, but I’ve become convinced the best path forward is to do the best science I can, and that can’t be here anymore. I’m still in love with the promise of those four magic letters. Ad astra per aspera, and remember: Earth is the only good planet.”

  2. It’s the law. #NASA #nyc #giss

    Law on the books that we should be brought back.

    “Earth System Modeling. In preparing the plan required under this paragraph in the Senate report. NASA shall ensure that Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS) employees are able to continue work with minimal disruption. including by considering a physical location of GISS near its previous location that supports GISS's strong academic partnerships.”

    “H.R. 6938, the “Commerce, Justice, Science; Energy and Water Development; and Interior and Environment Appropriations Act, 2026,” which makes consolidated appropriations for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2026, and for other purposes.”

  3. The GSFC -- goddard space flight center -- in Maryland has an amazing Science Visualization Studio.

    100% The folks there care not only about the research, but of the aesthetic of translating from science-speak to something everyone can understand.

    Feel awe and sadness... 2025 was HOT. Our outlook was not.

    2025 is only the SECOND HOTTEST year in the last 100,000.

Today I had respite #gfdl invited #nasa #giss #nyc to its #princeton campus for a 6 hour, science-talk only retreat 🧠 of my colleagues: we know next directions On est prêts And the 5-person carpool in a small hatchback is not only better for the environment, but also good for brainstorming ❤️🌎

  7. Ein Besuch in New York wird für Klimaforscher Jochem Marotzke zum surrealen Erlebnis: Während draußen das Leben pulsiert, herrscht im renommierten Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS) Endzeitstimmung. Die Trump-Regierung hat das Institut faktisch geschlossen – ein symbolträchtiger Angriff auf die Klimaforschung. Doch die Folgen reichen weit über die Wissenschaft hinaus: Wenn Forschung unterdrückt wird, verlieren Bürger den Zugang zu verlässlichen Informationen über Wetterextreme, Gesundheitsrisiken und Umweltveränderungen. Frühwarnsysteme, Katastrophenschutz und nachhaltige Technologien geraten ins Hintertreffen. Die Klimakrise trifft alle – doch ohne Forschung fehlt die Grundlage für Schutz und Anpassung.

  8. Why Is #NASA Shuttering This Iconic Institute in #NewYorkCity?
    Since 1966 NASA’s #Goddard Institute for #Space Studies (#GISS) has been at the forefront of Earth and planetary science from its location in upper #Manhattan. Now a Trump is ejecting its scientists to parts unknown
    GISS itself has not been disbanded. But without a physical home and under threat of a #WhiteHouse–proposed 50% cut to the entirety of NASA’s science its mission is uncertain

  9. Here are some of the meteorologists, weather and climate researchers we'll be hearing from during the Weather & Climate LIvestream, starting tomorrow at 1p ET.

    Why is this important and deserving of your time? Consider the context of the opening event:

    ---> "Live from the last hours in the NASA GISS lab, featuring Kate Marvel" <---

    The -last hours- of #NASA #GISS. Let that sink in. Conspicuous-- but only the tip of the destruction happening now.

    Some who'll be explaining the stakes we recognize, others not. All of them are providing vital services. Many are the future of our safety, now hanging in the balance.

    The original Charney Report that says doubling CO2 will yield 1.5-4.5 degrees C temperature change (
    geosci.uchicago.edu/~archer/wa
    )
    featured these two models from #NOAA 's #GFDL and #NASA 's #GISS - incidentally, gfdl was also in the news yesterday

    " The gutting of NOAA was outlined earlier this month in a leaked memo from the Office of Management and Budget that detailed steep reductions at the Department of Commerce, which houses the science agency. ... NOAA’s overall funding would be slashed by 27%…
    most significant target is the office of Oceanic and Atmospheric Research ⎯ a nerve center of global climate science, data collection and modeling, including the Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory ⎯ which would be cut by 74%. “At this funding level, OAR is eliminated as a line office,” the memo stated.”

  15. After watching Gone In 60 Seconds last night
    (#oldfavourite), I have realised that Sphinx would never have harmed the dog that ate the keys. He was simply implying that he could cut the dog open, remove the keys, and stitch him back up again. As a morgue worker, he would likely have a decent understanding of internal organs at worst, and have performed autopsies at best. He would have been able to retrieve the keys quickly, surgically, probably saving them MUCH needed time. However, as it put the young ones to work instead and freed him and others for simultaneous boosts, it was probably better they took the path they did.

  18. 🌳 The #nasa #giss #nyc #MoonTree arrived today

    The first moon trees were from Apollo 14 when Stuart Roosa packed seeds in his bags as part of the US bicentennial:
    nssdc.gsfc.nasa.gov/planetary/

    The idea of a tree grown of a seedling that had made its way around the moon piqued the interest of so many #STEM lovers that the modern #Artemis team decided we needed a new cohort of inspirational, well traveled trees:

    Our sapling sweet gum is hanging out w plants on our living wall

  19. We recently had the #enso forecasting group (who also does that fuzzy subseasonal2seasonal #climate forecasting) recently moved from their old home at ldeo #columbia to #nasa #giss - my lab.

    I Super excited to have these new folks on site!

    Brand new webpage for them went live today:

  20. #gistemp is one of the signature products to come out of #nasa #giss , my lab.

    #helene took down #noaa ‘s ncei data center

    Gistemp monthly updates depend on this data center. So they’ll be on hold for a bit

    Each day the sadness and resilience in the face of incredible devastation in North Carolina étal become more apparent

    Surprisingly: not even the most knowledgeable of #climate experts were prepared for the devastating impact of #climatechange fueled #ExtremeRain

  21. #Germany should be prepared for a large-scale military conflict in five years, said Captain Michael #Giss.

    "In Germany, we are still miles away from perceiving an external threat today, quite different from people in the Baltic states or #Poland, for example"

    "But my internal clock as a soldier is running and tells me that in five years' time we will have to be resilient as a society to withstand an external military threat."

  29. Our latest weekly #ClimateResearch roundup provides fast access to a bumper crop of 189 academic articles by 1,109 authors published in 75 journals.

    "Why the lower stratosphere cools when the troposphere warms" touches on a favorite hobbyhorse of advanced climate change deniers. Observational evidence is clear-- here's "why?"

    Don't miss #NASA #GISS Director Gavin Schmidt''s "Climate models can’t explain 2023’s huge heat anomaly — we could be in uncharted territory."
