Today @epa closed loopholes in the coal ash rule which means millions more tons of Indiana’s coal ash will be cleaned up. A win for Hoosier communities, and their water supplies.

[National Weather Service @NWS]

Scattered thunderstorms capable of producing damaging winds, large hail, and a few tornadoes should develop across parts of the Ohio Valley and Lower Great Lakes this afternoon. Thunderstorms with mainly a large hail threat may occur tonight over parts of the central Plains. Visit https://t.co/qk3BcVP5M8 for more.

Indy area folks--come learn about climate change in Indiana and beyond from yours truly next Tuesday afternoon!
We will be talking about problems AND solutions (there are many, by the way)

Happy #Geologist's Day to whoever celebrates it!⚒️
Began in the mid 60’s in the former USSR and technically falls on the 1st Sunday of April. It was eventually adopted by other countries, many now celebrate it around April 2nd.
There is even a (very sowjet) "Geologist's Hymn"...

A new model suggests the Late Devonian mass extinction was a result of volcanic eruption combined with ocean detoxification, which pushed Earth’s biology to a tipping point.

Learn how @GilhoolyLab, @GabeFilippelli and their team came to that conclusion: https://t.co/n8QcCO77w6

Will the Paris Climate target save the Ross Ice Shelf and limit Antarctic Ice Sheet melt? With @SWAIS2C, @IUPUI_ES' Kathy Licht will join more than 120 in trips to Antarctica to recover a geological record of the changing rock types from Antarctica's past.

(1 of 5) IT’S OFFICIAL:

Earth just had its hottest July in 174 years.

4th consecutive month of record-high global ocean surface temperature.

Antarctica #SeaIce coverage had a record-low in July for the 3rd consecutive month.

Geyser Hill, near Old Faithful, has experienced some recent changes, with a general increase in thermal and geyser activity that resembles changes that occurred in September 2018. #Yellowstone #CalderaChronicles has the scoop!

#ClimateTalk: What is ENSO?

The El Nino Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is when sea surface temperatures along the equator in the Pacific Ocean switch between warmer, average, and cooler temperatures. This causes a global shift in weather patterns.

[NASA Earth @NASAEarth]

ENSO is a complicated climate pattern.

Sea surface temperature, trade winds, atmospheric coupling and more are all factors in the El Niño Southern Oscillation.

Sea ice around Antarctica reached its lowest extent on Feb. 21, 2023, at 1.79 million square kilometers (691,000 square miles).

This is the lowest extent ever observed since the start of the satellite record in 1979.

Recent volcanic activity has been observed on Venus for the first time.

Scientists made the discovery by poring over archival radar images of Earth’s twin taken in the '90s by our Magellan mission. Our VERITAS mission is set to investigate: https://t.co/ookpSRqlhk
