But having this lawsuit drop while Miami is literally experiencing major flooding with no hurricane, because that's how bad king tides + sea level rise is now, is quite a choice

There's... a whole lot to say about this, but I'll just emphasize that reading @madisoncondon.bsky.social@bsky.brid.gy's paper on the climate analytics industry is absolutely critical context for this story.

Climate Services: The Business...

Climate services are a really important part of work @dmidk.bsky.social and this afternoon's session at the #DKklima Danish climate symposium is being opened by the legendary Francisco Doblas Reyes who starts by defining what #ClimateServices are, and the current European status a situation he currently describes as the "Wild West" but which there is now hope in understanding...

The Danish #ClimateAtlas is now extended to cover the oceans. Great talk by #KlimaAtlas supremo Mark Payne on what is shows, why it's important and how Denmark can use it to plan for #ClimateChange impacts.

#DKklima #ClimateImpacts #ClimateAdaptation

This morning the Danish climate symposium is kicking off with a session on the oceans and climate in Denmark. A very eye-opening piece by the Ocean institute based on my ace colleague Mark Payne's work on the #KlimaAtlas which this year has been extended to the seas around Denmark. A very large increase in marine heatwaves and too many nutrients has led to terrible water quality #iltsvind

Thirty years of hurt (and eleven years of writing about it) …

Every September, as the melt season on the Greenland ice sheet fizzles out, I and my colleague Martin Stendel do the same thing: we sit down with a year's worth of daily surface mass balance maps and weather charts from the Polar Portal, work out how the ice sheet fared, and write it up as a guest post for Carbon Brief. Our latest one, the 11th in the series covers September 2025 to August 2026 and this…

The traditional state of the Greenland Ice Sheet, at @carbonbrief, written by @Ruth_Mottram and @MartinStendel and this year augmented by Antarctic data, is out!

The Greenland Ice Sheet shrinks for the 30ᵗʰ year in a row. Based on a mixture of observations and model data, the loss in 2025/26 was 173 Gt (=173 km³). The average of three different models gives a loss of 135 Gt. In either case, the last year with an ice gain was 1995/96.

On a longer perspective, Greenland and Antarctica together lost 11309 Gt of ice between 1979 and 2023. This has raised the global sea level by around 32mm, 19 mm from Greenland and 13mm from Antarctica.

This distribution in contribution to sea-level rise will change in the future, as the Antarctic Ice Sheet is roughly 10 times larger than the Greenland Ice Sheet. Ice loss in Antarctica is dominated by marine-terminating glaciers, mainly in West Antarctica, the stability of which is hard to predict.

This one's a bit meta (small m), I wrote about what I learned about writing about the Greenland ice sheet for the Carbon Brief with my ace colleague @MartinStendel each year.

My ace colleague Shuting Yang presenting on climate change Tipping Points at the @dmidk.bsky.social@bsky.brid.gy NCKF Danish climate symposium this afternoon.
Part of @tipesm.bsky.social@bsky.brid.gy work!

The afternoon session at the Danish climate symposium is on the very relevant subject of Arctic security and climate change, including launch of this report on the Greenland perspective of climate and security

Kicking off the 2-day Danish climate symposium this morning with IPCC vice chair Ladislaus Chang'a, who is also director of Tanzania's meteorology agency.

The Danish climate status report is to be launched here too.

Well deserved recognition of an excellent Antarctic science communicator 👏

A francophone posted something where they referred to the good people of Mastodon as "Mastochoux" and I am totally in love with the term.

For the non-francophones, "choux" means "cabbages" (and is a kind of pastry) but it is used as a term of affection, as in "mon petit chouchou." See https://untranslatable.ink/phrases/288/chouchou

After a failure to finalise its budget, the UN's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change is now in limbo; the budget deal fell apart when a group of fossil fuel producing countries wanted to delay the next tranche of data (due to be delivered in time for next year's COP32).

So now the Fossil Fuel lobby behind these Govt. positions has found the perfect way to slow (even more) action on climate change; de-fang the credible global body producing the data on it.
