Hey everyone - that's right - totally thrilled to be in Brussels with a great team and really cool science!
5 Nov 2024
Thrilled to announce π that Chris Smith (@chrisroadmap) has joined our Department of Water and Climate at @VUBrussel as a Senior Scientist! With a strong background in climate science, we're excited to have him on board. Welcome, Chris!

It's nice to see fair being used in the wild for novel climate attribution studies: "Half of anthropogenic warming now caused by fossil fuels" by Tarshish et al. preprint: eartharxiv.org/repository/viβ¦

Can all of the modelling groups who have run experiments looking at the IMO 2020 sulphur phase out in maritime fuel please come together and create... ShipMIP?

Thankfully, this is not at all consistent with numerous other constraints on climate sensitivity. These suggest 2-4 degC of global warming for doubling CO2, which is more than enough to worry about.

sigh, I had a similar paper rejected from ERL in 2021... admittedly my figures were nowhere near as sick

CO2 storage faces geological, geographical, and techno-economic limitations. This new feasibility study identifies a global benchmark of 5-6 GtCO2yr in 2050. Most IAMs do not take these constraints into account (see upper bounds of storage rates below) nature.com/articles/s41467-0β¦

At least if you are gonna rely on DICE, get the climate bit right iopscience.iop.org/article/1β¦

"You should never rely on the output of any single model. If you want to make sensible policy decisions, you need to use the insights from a range of models, but also from other approaches (history, geography, social psychology, & more)" @DimitriZ

Back when I was teaching, this was an excellent reference for my intro to physical climate module
24 Aug 2024
If you use my book, Intro to Modern Climate Change, I've created a google group for it: groups.google.com/u/1/g/intrβ¦
I will send out updates to the book to this list. I expect to send very few messages to the list, perhaps a few per year.

I'd much rather my institute was giving money to anaconda than bloody microsoft

Hot take 𧡠on the @anacondainc academic licensing fiasco...
Anaconda provides a huge amount of value to large, well-funded academic research institutions who are absolutely fine with paying big license fees to Mathworks, Intel, etc. for software.

alright then - here's the data
github.com/chrisroadmap/cmipβ¦
slightly different to below - went from fitting an Etminan relationship (complexity not warranted by data) to a simple log, this removes the artefact in GISS-E2-1-H in SSP5-8.5 after 2100
if you use, let me know
19 Aug 2024
for all those people still here... I came up with a neat way of estimating model-specific non-CO2 radiative forcing from SSP scenarios in ESMs. Would you find it useful? Is this worth devoting a week of my life writing a paper on it?
