Only 37% of cold surges ever cross the equator. We dug into 40 winters of data to find out why. The answer? It is not about surge strength. It is about what the tropics are already doing.

Cities that cycle more, breathe better. Simple idea. Complex science.
This #WorldBicycleDay, what do you think is the biggest barrier to cycling becoming mainstream? We want to hear from you.👇

Peatlands store more carbon than all forests combined. But how they respond to sun vs. clouds? Our research sheds light on exactly that. On #WorldPeatlandsDay, the science matters.

Grapefruit-sized hail sounds unreal but it’s becoming more possible in a warming world. This week’s @nature
cover story looks at how climate change may be fuelling larger and more destructive hailstorms, led by Qinghong Zhang at #PekingUniversity.

Why did the Australian monsoon arrive so late this year? @DrTimboC
At #OMC2026, Matthew Wheeler showed how real-time monitoring connects directly to better forecasts and decisions. Read the research shaping how we predict monsoons:https://t.co/8FP7Xbgjmz

Prof. Mu Mu at #OMC2026: AI weather models are powerful, but can we trust the black box?
High skill ≠ physical interpretability. AI needs process-level agreement with observations to be more than a predictor.

Participants at #OMC2026 showed great interest in our #WCRP Monsoon Special Issue at the AAS booth.
Excited to see the community engage with monsoon research.

Watching Dr. Thara Prabhakaran of #IITMPune explain how aircraft fly into monsoon clouds to study aerosols at #OpenMonsoonConference2026 was truly mesmerising.
@aasjournal looks forward to the opportunity of connecting with #IITM and it's fellow researchers. #AAS#WCRP
