In state-of-the-art #climate models, with resolutions of just a few km, simulated tropical #cyclones are much more like those in the real world. I've written about this new research in a blog for the nextGEMS project. nextgems-h2020.eu/advancing-trop…

Summer-style heat is piling into Europe right now. Unprecedented for this early in April. Watch how Storm Kathleen acts like a giant engine that scoops the heat out of Africa and pushes it across Europe. Many records are about to fall...

A whole year of record breaking ocean temperatures. This warmth has significant effects on ocean ecosystems. A large fraction of the world’s human population rely on protein from the ocean to live. Disruption to life in the ocean does affect us all. bbc.co.uk/news/science-e…

Good explanation of what you saw last night...for us this far South, we see a lot of the reddish pink because at our latitude, we see the upper altitude mostly. We in the South experienced something very unique and possibly once in a lifetime for those that were curious...

55 years ago almost half of kids walked or biked to school. Today that number is closer to 11%. All around the world, the movement to empower our kids to bike and walk to school is in full force. Today, the #BikeBus empire strikes back.
