Gary ‘Mani’ Mounfield, the Stone Roses and Primal Scream bassist, dies aged 63 Ian Brown and Tim Burgess were among those to pay tribute to Mani, whose death was announced by his brother and nephew

Gutted. So sad. 😭 as an ardent stone roses and primal scream fan it’s a sad day.. saw him with PS in Glasto what a legend rolling eyes and laughing when Bobbie Gillespie berated the crowd…

📢Global Carbon Budget 2025📢

Fossil CO2 emissions continue to rise in 2025 while the terrestrial carbon sink recovers to pre-El Niño strength.

The key findings are covered in two reports this year:
* ESSDD (preprint): essd.copernicus.org/preprints/es...
* Nature: www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Bar chart showing estimates of remaining carbon dioxide budgets that give a 50% likelihood of staying below each temperature level, relative to pre-industrial levels. A baseline label shows global emissions in 2025 at 42 gigatonnes (Gt) per year. Three vertical bars show remaining CO2 budgets: stay below 1.5°C — 170 Gt, labeled as 4 years of current emissions, with a note that if emissions stay at 2025 levels the 1.5°C budget will be exhausted within 4 years; stay below 1.7°C — 525 Gt, labeled as 12.5 years of current emissions; stay below 2°C — 1055 Gt, labeled as 25 years of current emissions, with an annotation saying that by 2050 we will have exhausted the 2°C budget unless emissions are reduced now. Footer note states these estimates have uncertainty and depend on changes in non-CO2 greenhouse gases such as methane and nitrous oxide. Data sources listed as IPCC, Forster et al. (2025) and Global Carbon Project (2025). License CC BY.

How much CO₂ can the world emit while limiting global temperature rise?

On behalf of the Department of Oceanography at the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa, we are excited to invite applications for a full-time, tenure-track faculty position in Ocean Biogeochemical Modeling at the rank of assistant professor. www.schooljobs.com/careers/hawa... position number 0082726

I’m still figuring out bluesky… but with the goal of more easily finding information I’m interested in, I started a feed and associated starter pack for Hydrological Processes as well as Hydrological Extremes. Please let me know if you want to be added to the starter pack! bsky.app/profile/did:...

Map centered on the North Pole showing the October 2025 average temperature as the difference from the 1991-2020 baseline.

Incredible Arctic heat in October. Highest average temperature on record for land and seas north of 60ºN. In Canada, Yukon Territory and Nunavut second warmest, Northwest Territories third warmest. Alaska and Svalbard fourth warmest. Data courtesy ERA5. #akwx #Arctic #Canada #Climate

Best of luck!!!

Rotary evaporator distilling water to obtain DOC

Watching water evaporate… the exciting life of a researcher. Reducing water volume to analyse dissolved organic carbon. Is it from the lake, surface runoff, or previously stored carbon from permafrost thaw? Watch this space! (told you it was exciting) 😀

Just returned from another successful Arctic field campaign, this time at Toolik Field Station (68.6°N) in North Slope Alaska! ❄️

Undertaking peat and lake coring for @ceibheannaigh.bsky.social's NERC Fellowship - Soil to Sea: The fate of terrestrial permafrost carbon in aquatic systems 🍃🌍

Auroras at Toolik Field Station

Will post properly when I get home, hectic sampling trip in the meantime you can see some updates here uk.linkedin.com/in/evelyn-ke...

Views from yesterday's fieldwork. Hopefully out on the lake today

Nearly at the end of the journey to Toolik lake. One flight left (3rd) and a 4hr drive left… some pics from the Seattle to Anchorage flight, next flight is from Anchorage to Deadhorse (kid you not!) airport in Prudhoe Bay

Lake webinars! Check out this freshly updated list, including:
🦓💪 Aug. 21: How zebra mussels are changing fish contaminants
🌊🛥️ Aug. 26: Wake boat impacts on lakes
💧💲 Sept. 4: Watershed grants from MI EGLE

Antarctic Ocean secrets hidden in layers of seafloor mud How long tubes of mud - drilled out of the Antarctic seafloor - could reveal how the frozen continent is changing.

Nice explainer on why the permafrost carbon feedback may be scary, but not necessarily a tipping point in the strict definition of the word. Not an easy topic to communicate correctly!

I have people now sending me angry messages/emails that climate change is bigger than just the US...

Yes, please see the links to my other global visualizations in this thread:

Ice wedge polygons, Devon Island, Nunavut

Here’s some nice permafrost features

Just added 15 more including this one of Mt. St. Helens crater. #geology #EarthScience #teaching #scienceteaching

All done, took half a day but easier than when in the field!

Half way through pre-labelling sample bags ahead of my Alaska trip… 250 to go. Who said science was boring… 😂

Lake webinars! MILP just upcated their list. Some new ones:
8/21: How zebra mussels are changing fish contaminants
8/26: How wake boats impact lakes
9/25: Starry stonewort and manoomin (wild rice)
10/2: When the forst burns, what's in the water?

Extremes I’ve just returned from a field visit to northern Sweden – above the Arctic Circle. It was close to thirty degrees Celsius this week. We nearly got burned off the mountain. This kind of heat …

Climate change hits fast and erratic - through extremes, not slow trends. In our new TREE paper (led by @lysoifer.bsky.social), we discuss what's needed for us to deal with the resulting unpredictable range shifts.

Summary: the3dlab.org/2025/07/20/e...

Paper: sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

A graph showing the observed and modeled global temperature change since 1970. The models have been remarkably accurate in their predictions.

« Climate models have been consistent wrong in their predictions, why should we trust them now ? »

It’s a common claim, but climate models have been around since the 1970s… So how well have they actually performed? Let’s take a look 🔮👀

New paper alert integrating #isotope-aided with N-modelling to quantify (dis)connections of different flow paths & related biogeochemical transformations with spatially-explicit estimates of water ages & Damköhler no. ‪@kinarnicholas.bsky.social‬ cld u highlight? THANKS! doi.org/10.1029/2025...
