New work: Permafrost carbon emissions need to be accurately projected in Earth System models for full consideration of the remaining global carbon budget nature.com/articles/s41558-0…

New report in @NatureClimate: The way science is funded is hampering Earth System Models and likely skewing climate predictions, according to a comment published today by #PermafrostPathways @WoodwellClimate and an international team of model experts. nature.com/articles/s41558-0… /1

Up to 30 days longer active growing season in the warmest enclosures at the #SPRUCE experiment if you add up earlier spring green-up and delayed fall senescence

The strongest driver for autumn green-down is the accumulation of chilling degree days (CDD) and models including a CO2 parameter do best. Increased atmospheric CO2 advances autumn green-down #ClimateChange

June 21 is #ShowYourStripes’ day and summer solstice! Most places go from blue to red in the last 30 years. Find your location here: showyourstripes.info/c/globe

Great summary of the 2022 Global Carbon Budget by @Jones_MattW Thank you for the annual updates and great figures @gcarbonproject
🚨🌍 Global Carbon Budget 2022, out now!🌍🚨 It provides the latest update on how we humans have tampered with Earth's remarkable system of #carbon stocks and flows. So what are the take-homes from our latest update? @gcarbonproject @PFriedling

New permafrost carbon synthesis paper with 9 future worlds of Arctic methane and carbon dioxide emissions. This accelerating feedback to climate change depends on what humans do and the response of Arctic ecosystems to warming: doi.org/10.1146/annurev-envi… #ClimateChange #permafrost

Learn about common misconceptions around permafrost
Replying to @ICCInet
Myth 1: The fuse is already lit, and massive meltdown and #GreenhouseGas release are inevitable within a few years or decades. Abrupt methane release from hydrates, craters, and lakes has been triggered and is now unstoppable ⏰⌛️

What is the best single thing we can do to protect permafrost ecosystems? Stop fossil fuel emissions! New pub is out addressing the urgency frontiersin.org/articles/10.…

The Richardson Lab @EcossNAU @NAU has a postdoc opening working on phenology at the DOE SPRUCE experiment (mnspruce.ornl.gov) with #PhenoCam data. Info here: tinyurl.com/3529wb3n

Seeing #permafrost, feeling how cold it is and standing next to a massive ice wedge is an amazing experience (so is the smell of decomposing organic material!). Thanks @Thomas_Douglas for the great tour
