What are the archives of nature? How do they help us identify, or "reconstruct," the history of environmental change? Dagomar Degroot explains in this short video, part of a series that introduces his new book, "Ripples on the Cosmic Ocean." #ClimateChange https://t.co/i7eX2G2y41
I was shocked when I first saw these results from standard climate models used in IPCC reports:
for high emissions, the Atlantic overturning circulation #AMOC shuts down in all 9 models that ran
past 2100, and is well on the way to shutdown by 2100.
Our paper is out today. 🧵

The second episode of The Climate Chronicles is also the first episode of the podcast’s first season, “Becoming Human.” In this episode, Professor Degroot explores the far-fetched possibility that humanity might not be the first intelligent species to overheat the Earth. He explains how scientists piece together the deep history of climate change on Earth.

In the introductory episode of The Climate Chronicles, Professor Degroot uses one of the great adventure stories of the seventeenth century – the tale of fourteen men deserted on two Arctic islands – to introduce the history of climate change.

Now @NASA use the climate spiral to communicate how unusual global temperatures were in July 2023.
I made the original version in 2016 which was featured in the opening ceremony of the Rio Olympics.

The Climate of History

BREAKING: June 2023 has blown away all prior records for the month of June, coming in at a staggering 0.16C above the prior record set in 2019.
It was around 1.46C above the typical temperatures we saw in June in the preindustrial era (1850-1899).
I can only echo! 😉 come and work with the wonderful Sasha Gora around global #envhist and #envhum themes of food & climate change in the context of our IDK @UmWeltDenken
