👏We have two awesome invited speakers for our #AGU23 session
🌏🌍Internal Variability of the Climate System: Methods, Mechanisms, Changes, and Impacts 🌎🌏
Ulla Heede (CU Boulder)
Kevin Schwarzwald @ks905383 (Columbia)
⌛️Make sure you submit an abstract by August 2 - link 👇!
Present your work in our #AGU23 session: Internal Variability of the Climate System: Methods, Mechanisms, Changes, and Impacts! We're excited to see your abstract! Co-convened by @ClimateFlavors, @KayMcmonigal & Raul Wood. Description & submission link: https://t.co/MEzjsKHscl
This morning, "extremely critical" wildfire risk designation--the highest level--has been expanded by NOAA SPC to include portions of San Diego County as well as much of LA/Ventura counties. Very strong winds & *extremely* low humidity w/record dry fuels expected. #CAwx#CAfire
Might there be some actual rain next wknd in SoCal? Yes, there's a good chance of showers! But uncertainty is high; SoCal will be on "razor's edge" between heavier downpours (& post-fire debris flow risk) and yet another strong/dry offshore wind event. Stay tuned. #CAwx#CAfire
For the first UTIG+ Climate Hour of 2025, Danielle Touma discussed the climate science behind the #LAWildfires, why they spread so quick and what to expect in the future.
If you're a climate scientist at @txgeosciences or @UTAustin, Climate Hour meets Fridays at 1:30pm at UTIG.
Thank you @aznfusion for speaking to me about our new paper on hydroclimate volatility (https://t.co/hcn4QmG5pb) and how it relates to the LA wildfires
The climate coincidences that whipped up the LA wildfires are only going to become more common, according to @UTGeophysics's extreme weather expert Danielle Touma.

Our paper on "Hydroclimate volatility on a Warming Earth" is out in Nature Reviews Earth & Environment. We assess existing scientific literature & conduct new analysis--concluding that "#HydroclimateWhiplash" is increasing due to #ClimateChange. [Thread] https://t.co/OMmihfAENg
Climate change is leading to an increase in extreme rainfall events. However, in this new study, we showed that extreme flooding events won’t increase as much. Why? Plants are helping us, as always :)
Just dropping by to share our new perspective piece, which dives into an early career view on supporting and training scientists for interdisciplinary work in the rapidly growing field of extreme weather and climate event research...

I am recruiting two graduate students (MS or PhD) interested in computational hydrology for Fall 2025 to join my newly established a.c.t. hydro lab (https://t.co/wSedPmIaYo) @UBuffalo@SUNY! Please share widely! More details can be found here: https://t.co/mmuMNtwojq
Breakout out those CVs and personal statements - it's time for the next job cycle!!
We're pleased to announce that the 2024-2025 EES Jobs List is LIVE!

1. Climate adaptation is underfunded, partially because it’s hard to project returns on investment. We need to know more about what works where, says the UNFCCC.
My coauthors & I say: existing data can do this, & at scale.

@wildland_zko This is also a cool demonstration of how a wildfire behaves under wet/cool conditions vs warm/dry conditions, and how day to day and location to location changes in these conditions can set how far, fast, and severe a wildfire will burn!
The second paper of my PhD has been published in @Nature_NPJ Climate & Atmospheric Science! ✨
We quantify the uncertainty associated with downscaling & bias-correcting CMIP6 climate models. This uncertainty is important in many circumstances!

Data, data, everywhere... Starting a new analysis and not quite sure what relevant datasets are out there, or how to choose among them? The updated NCAR Climate Data Guide may be just the thing -- it lists quick pros and cons, plus figures, metadata, and expert notes. 1/6
Once again, it is time to share this @IPCC_CH#AR6 graphic:
With every fraction of additional global warming, heat extremes & heavy precipitation events become both more frequent & more intense on average over land regions. And some regions are also affected by drought increases.
