@theAGU I booked my hotel (Arlo Washington DC) through the conference website but when I called the hotel to confirm they cannot find the reservation? Can you help? I don't want to turn up and have nowhere to stay!
How much can air pollution change in high vs. low traffic conditions? A new study by EDF & @UniOfYork looking at congestion in London found NOx emissions were typically:
🚚 2x higher in congested conditions for fleets with a high % of diesel vehicles.
🚛 5x higher in stop-and-go traffic for intense emitters like diesel buses & heavy goods vehicles.

ggplot2 3.5.0 is on it's way to CRAN 🎉🎉🎉
This is a big one and is in large part the work of @TeunvandenBrand. The new features will be spread out over several blog posts, starting with this:

Global temperatures in 2023 are extraordinary.
The various different datasets available all agree on this. We are breaking records by shocking amounts.

New blog post! Our writer @lisacmuth takes you on a tour of all the fascinating ways to use color (and lots of gray!) to lead the reader’s eye in your #dataviz.

Yesterday the IPCC 6th Assessment published its Synthesis Report (SYR) which included this graphic (SYR.1c) which has been a popular way to discuss future warming in the context of different generations.
What were the inspirations for this graphic?

dplyr 1.1.0 is out now! 🎉
This is a huge release, so we split the announcement into 4 posts to be released throughout the week. #rstats
Today we'll focus on joins, including:
- join_by()
- Inequality and rolling joins
- Two new quality control arguments

NEW: income inequality in US & UK is so wide that while the richest are very well off, the poorest have a worse standard of living than the poorest in countries like Slovenia https://t.co/gtHvhNsnuT
Essentially, US & UK are poor societies with some very rich people.
A thread:
Working with colleagues and friends at Jungfraujoch station "Top of Europe"to achieve complete carbon balance in free tropospheric air as well as that influenced by the planetary boundary layer. @AMOF_Science, @AtmosScience, @WACL, @psich_en, IMT Lille Douai and @Empa_CH
Everyone realises that by reducing our carbon emissions we are only stopping the planet from getting warmer, rather than actually cooling the planet, right?
50 years ago today, the #Apollo16 spacecraft entered lunar orbit. During the second revolution of the Moon, the crew captured this Earthrise with a handheld Hasselblad camera. #Apollo50
For this #TidyTuesday, I used a connected scatterplot to show the link between increasing access to clean fuel for cooking and decrease of death from indoor air pollution.

Editorial in today's FT on new IPCC report:
"The science of climate change is now well understood, as are the technical solutions. The larger problem is politics..."

"In the scenarios we assessed, limiting warming to around 1.5°C requires global greenhouse gas emissions to peak before 2025 at the latest, and be reduced by 43% by 2030; at the same time, methane would also need to be reduced by about a third"
