  1. Is tropical rain belt variability driven by self-organization of #clouds? ⛅️

    We're proud to welcome Dr. Tomoro Yanase at #MPIM to investigate this question, together with #MPI_Scientist Cathy Hohenegger. 🌅

    They aim to use both idealized & realistic simulations, & #ORCESTRA observations to understand how variations in SST patterns may cause variability in cloudiness across the #ITCZ 🌧️🌊🌍

    Dr. Yanase’s #ResearchStay is supported by the @HumboldtStiftung & will last for 1 year from Oct 2025 🙌

  2. From a fisher’s cliff 🎣 to a climate outpost 🔭: Deebles Point became home to the Barbados Cloud Observatory in 2010 🇧🇧. Perched 30m above sea level on the east coast of Barbados, the site was popular with local fishers casting into the trade winds. In 2024, during the international #ORCESTRA campaign, 141 radiosondes 🎈 were launched there in just 3.5 weeks. For 15 yrs, the BCO has tracked clouds ☁️, aerosols 💧,& winds 💨—contributing to global climate research 🌎. #ThrowbackThursday #MPIM50

  8. Was Virginia Woolf talking about the ITCZ when she said “the inner life has its soft and gentle beauty”?

    J. Windmiller and B. Stevens are exploring the inner life of the #ITCZ in the hope of better understanding its outer life. They're revealing the rich, asymmetric, structure of it—much more fascinating than the single line that is often falsely assumed. Read their paper: t.ly/2RK_G.

    And watch this space! The upcoming #ORCESTRA campaign in August will certainly have more to say.
