In case anyone is wondering, about 1/2 of the 150 million tonnes of water vapor injected into the stratosphere by the extremely violent Hunga Tonga eruption (January 2022) is still there.
A fascinating natural experiment for upper atmospheric chemistry and dynamics.

In 1890, Henri Poincaré proved the non-existence of the uniform first integral of the three-body problem and the sensitive dependence to initial conditions of its trajectories.
Yet, stable solutions to it do exist and these are some of them.
🌊🎉 #argofloat network just hit a monumental milestone with its 3,000,000th profile!
Celebrating 20 years of in-situ, real-time, global, multi-disciplinary and free-access ocean data that has been revolutionizing modern oceanography for 20 years! #OceanScience#Argo3Million
Our new emergent constraint paper is now out in @NatureComms! This one reduces uncertainty in arguably the most policy-relevant numbers to come from climate science: the global carbon budgets consistent with the Paris targets. @GSI_Exeter@exeter

[1/12] Now 2023 Ocean Data is out! Global 2023 upper 2000 m ocean heat content was the highest ever recorded by modern instruments, 15 ZJ higher than 2022 for IAP data (https://t.co/qZmzOeOe6v) with a major update of IAP time series since 1940 (https://t.co/WYLpOG9Rtv)
Another two days to submit an abstract for #EGU24 Still looking for a session and you work on seasonal to decadal predictions? Take a look at CL4.3: " Seasonal to multi-decadal climate predictions and their applications" https://t.co/Pxcs8HM6xT #s2d
I think it’s also worth linking to our post from this time last year where we were highlighting the near-certainty of the hottest year on record and likelihood of a year above +1.5 C in the next five years https://t.co/sORV6CFLKv
November 2023 global surface temperatures are now out from ERA5 as well as JRA-55. Both show this November as the warmest on record by a large margin (~0.3C).
JRA-55 has this November at 1.6C above preindustrial levels, while ERA5 has it at 1.7C.
Approaching 1.5°C: how will we know we’ve reached this crucial warming mark?
The Paris Agreement does not define "temperature rise", so recognition of 1.5°C being reached may be delayed
In @nature we propose the Current Global Warming Level metric

Read this about how storms like Babet and Ciarán will become more frequent with climate change and then look at the video below to cheer yourself up: https://t.co/KIBxahscuo
Ever wonder what it will be like when heating due to humans reaches 1.5 degrees C? I think 2023 has given us some hints: https://t.co/mIWHE1uMJr @SDG_Action
How can anyone argue that it is too expensive to do more to cut greenhouse gases when climate change is estimated as already costing us $140 billion a year?! https://t.co/YQHb7cwAlO
Watch out. NOAA is doubling the odds that this hurricane season will be above normal, increasing the number of storms forecast. It's already a busy year with 5 named storms so far (2 is normal for this time of year). Why? Hot oceans, tardy El Nino. https://t.co/bRTIKAYzIm
