Congratulations to @natalyagomez for her 2023 #IUGG Early Career Scientist award. From Natalya Gomez's citation:
"for her seminal contributions to our understanding of the connections between the cryosphere and sea level change, at the border of geophysical and climate sciences."

Was ist los mit der #Atlantikzirkulation?

Heute möchte ich ein paar aktuelle Gedanken zur Abschwächung und zum #Kipppunkt der atlantischen meridionalen #Umwälzzirkulation (AMOC) zusammenfassen. Ich habe vorletzte Woche an einer zweitägigen #AMOC-Sitzung auf der #IUGG-Konferenz in #Berlin teilgenommen, es gibt interessante neue #Fachpublikation​en, und im Lichte dieser Erkenntnisse habe ich meine Einschätzung etwas geändert. Hier sind zehn Punkte, angefangen bei den Grundlagen, so dass ihr leicht zu den Aspekten springen könnt, die euch interessieren.

This post on #Antarctic #seaIce by @ZLabe is an excellent run-diwn of the current state of knowledge - and the power of saying I don't know! -
I spent several days at #IUGG trying to find someone who did know and eventually concluded that actually noone knows for sure, though there are a lot of interesting ideas...

(And, as Zack says, it's unlikely to be just one thing and more likely to be a complex story)

3/ Wer sind die denn jetzt? Was wollen die? Was mit Klima? Schon wieder? Und wieso haben die weiße Kittel an? Haben die sonst nicht immer orangene Westen an?

Ach, kiek, da steht ja was drauf: #ScientistRebellion. Mein Gott, jetzt die Wissenschaftler auch noch! Und sogar noch Frauen! Vielleicht denken die ja, wir hätten das noch immer nicht richtig verstanden und machen deshalb merkwürdige Dinge mit Denkmälern.

Muss doch gleich mal gucken, was da so steht, an dem Denkmal. Aber ich warte lieber noch, bis die weg sind. Die sehen sehr gefährlich aus und ich habe neulich in der Zeitung gelesen, dass die Klimaleute immer radikaler werden.

Die Klimawissenschaftler*innen waren übrigens auf einem Fachkongress in Berlin: #IUGG. Zwei sind auch bei #ExtinctionRebellion in den Niederlanden aktiv.

The poster is still up! #IUGG

Yet another #IUGG talk: "Unfortunately, the presenter could not be here due to visa issues". Do better, Europe!

From today there will be several presentations by our staff at the #IUGG 2023 in Berlin, here is the schedule, come and see us

Ending my #IUGG23 with this article from @robinsonmeyer in @heatmap_news The title is perhaps a little overdramatic but I agree with pretty much everything in it and what I've learned at #IUGG pretty much confirms.it.

We're at the end of the beginning of #ClimateScience, now it's time to prepare for.the next phase.

I was asked at #IUGG today about mastodon and how it works. And after launching into a quick overview I remembered this post shared by @drewdevault - I think the distinction between social media and parasocial media is quite helpful.

Great talk by Veronica Tollenaar on #BlueIce areas in #Antarctica that somehow manages to unite meteorites, machine learning, satellite data and the impact of #ClimateChange ..

It turns out that warming temperatures help the #meteorites melt their way into the ice and be lost.

A highlight of the #IUGG23 is the medal lecture of Ricarda Winckelmann on #TippingPoints in #Antarctica.
Great title: when giants falter.

#IUGG some of the presenters have problems answering questions because of language issues. I’m sure they could give an insightful answer in their own language, but I wouldn’t understand. Now we both struggle in our non-native broken English. Time for some simultaneous translators?

A very well-deserved #IUGG gold medal to #IPCC chair Valerie Masson-Delmotte

First day of @theiugg #IUGG General Assembly. #Climatechange in the focus and the desperate situation of an unfolding drama but still missing sufficient action.

Media often ask: "Don't you get cynic when seeing this as scientists?"

Most appropriate answer is a quote attributed George Bernard Shaw:
"The power of accurate observation is commonly called #cynicism by those who don't have it".

Are you at #IUGG #IUGG23?
I am presenting my poster today (the 12th) at 17:00, hall B (poster number JP03p-15).

The title is: Investigating surface buoyancy flux and Ekman transport influence on the Southern Ocean's upper ocean pycnocline stratification.

If you are interested by buoyancy fluxes, Ekman transport, stratification, non-linearities of the EOS, or just curious, come for a chat!

Off to #IUGG this morning to talk #IceSheets #CMIP6 #CMIP7 and #ISMIP7, but stopping by @rahmstorf 's talk on #AMOC #TippingPoints first.

Give me a shout if you're at #IUGG23 this week and want to meet up!

Glad to be in the #train to @theiugg #IUGG before this hits.

Attending the #IUGG conference in Berlin this week? Tomorrow at 8:30-9:00 is my lecture:
* Is the Atlantic Overturning Circulation approaching a tipping point? *
Hope to see you then in Hall A, room A1, session "The Meridional Overturning Circulation".

On the train platform at #Praha playing spot the scientists...
