Maybe maybe maybe our #NYC office will reopen. #NASAGISS

Happier 2026 Everyone.

Sister, seems like we were all afraid you wouldn’t survive your first winter inside

But you thrived

And now, I hear maybe you are moving to Central Park - pretty swank

See you soon

👋 ❤️ 🌖 🌳

NASA cancels lease for Earth science office in New York

US Undergrads wanting to work at #nasa #NASAGISS #NYC this summer ~> cool opportunity to work on a Alex and the Impact Groups’ Climate GAME

#gistemp

Your favorite #nasa lab in #nyc #nasagiss came out with its May temperature analysis.

Giss measures its baseline climate to the 1950-1980 average.

This past year, we are 1.3 ℃ (2.34degF) above that.

Finally my paper looking at #AtmosphericRivers is out!

"How River-like ARE Atmospheric Rivers?”

VERY-- they take moisture from 1000's km and 10deg equatorward than your average storm.

#NASA #CYGNSS - GPS array that looks at how choppy the ocean surface is to determine surface wind speed and heat fluxes compares well w simulations from the #NASAGISS climate model w include a tracer suite that identifies where moisture in the atmosphere originally evaporated from.

#ClimateChange this past year did something odd.

2023 wasn’t supposed to be so hot. #enso El Niño didn’t start until mid year. And yet it was a scorcher.

Gavin Schmidt (my boss) explains why we were all caught +0.2degC off guard.

wasnt hunga tonga ‘22 volcano water vapor

mightve been cleaner shipping fuels… but not all

and so we really dont know what DID happen

YIKES

#nasagiss and #gsfc #ClimateChange scientists lead this mission.

I am excited and hopeful. There is a #polarimeter aboard which is particularly important for figuring out aerosols impact on our #climate

My colleague Natassa Romanou explaining to Bloomberg how ocean trawling is kicking up tons of CO2… twice as much, in fact, as the fishing industry fossil fuel emissions.

There won’t be any surprises when #NASA #NASAGISS #GISTEMP and #NOAA announce their official 2023 #temperatures tomorrow (11am EST / NY Friday January 12, 2024). #Climate #ClimateChange … … tune in (link here to YouTube…) https://www.nasa.gov/news-release/nasa-noaa-to-announce-2023-global-temperatures-climate-conditions/

My grad student #nasa intern at CCRI (#nasagiss #nyc ), Lily Donaldson (PhD student at RPI) has been working as a mentor herself to kids at the Brighton Elementary School in #Tennessee who get to do a #ISS downlink and ask questions of real astronauts Nov 9 on nasa tv (details below).

Super excited for her and her students! #education

Okay... so... I gave my #NASAGISS talk about the #HISTORY of #Climate #ClimateModeling at #NASA GISS for its 60th anniversary.

I am a passable story teller after all.

I’ll give a text-version here... though not all at once… 40-minutes of the first 20 yrs.

In the beginning... climate ‘prediction' used Farmer's Almanacs... these were pretty awesome resources in knowing when to plant what crops.

They were pretty awesome, that is, until humans intervened…

Releasing what we all knew :

“July 2023 was 0.43 degrees Fahrenheit (F) (0.24 degrees Celsius (C)) warmer than any other July in NASA’s record, and it was 2.1 F (1.18 C) warmer than the average July between 1951 and 1980… warmest month in our record, which goes back to 1880”

Do you know a teacher or a grad student who’d like to do a PAID 10-month long part-time internship at #NASA #NYC ?

Both get to work with #NASAGISS and #NASAGSFC and #Columbia Univ. scientists on #climate projects as part of our #ClimateChange Research Initiative. (Must be USA based.)

https://www.giss.nasa.gov/edu/ccri/

High School teachers get to work with a dynamic group of @edutooters and develop K-12 Curricula.

DEADLINE: August 20, 2023

List of projects below:

#FediJobs #Postdoc #ClimateChange

Equilibrium Climate Sensitivity, the amount of warming expected 2xCO2, lends much uncertainty to future #climatechange projections. Models designed with historical climate in mind must predict our future outside that range.

Many scientists believe that #paleoclimate constraints will narrow this uncertainty.

Interested & post-PhD? Come work w Jess Tierney in #Tucson, me in #nyc & others using the #NASA #NASAGISS climate model:

Super interesting seminar speaker this week at #NASAGISS #NASA ::

Kelton Minor does #Climate research at the intersection #ClimateChange and #SocialScience

Night time temperatures have been ticking up, and human bodies need that diurnal cycle of cool to rest well—

Particularly for every increase in temperature above ~50F / 10C , folks lose sleep.

Fascinating, check it out for yourself:

Tonight, I (in my mid-40s), was the most senior researcher who

endeavored to go to the “happy hour” social organized monthly by young

#nasa #nasagiss #climate scientists in #nyc #Columbia university

And — knock me over w a feather — met 2! young researchers in this gathering whom I knew 1st from Mastodon, on my own instance of fediscience.org

Grateful for new (young colleague) IRL friends
