Hey folks, I'm thrilled to announce the merger of Rowan Institute and ReclaimingSTEM. Our two organizations were operating in parallel, with very similar mission and vision. And in this time of transition and healing through the pandemic, this merger is a strategic move. https://t.co/PINg6Sm4EG
We are setting the stage for a lot of confusion given differences in the future warming projections in the IPCC AR6 and the latest generation of models (CMIP6). For example, here are future projections for Norway from CMIP6 (dashed) and scaled to AR6 assessed warming (solid): https://t.co/YlVoKXxbn3

When I got Covid in 2020 and spent weeks in the hospital, it was harrowing. But it was nothing compared to what my family is dealing with now—also as a result of Covid. This is a Covid horror story in which no one actually gets Covid, and it could still happen to anyone 🧵

@KHayhoe @brittwray I have many practices I use with students and in orgs. Circles is a big one. Happy to chat further.
As @KHayhoe said in a wonderful @JFKLibrary forum tonight, climate activism is contagious: eg, people are more likely to go solar if their neighbor does. Taking the train, driving an EV, etc. isn’t “virtue signaling” (ugh) — it’s what parents know as “modeling good behavior.”
@KHayhoe @reneelertzman @brittwray I've been thinking about this a lot, and I just wrote about it in @sciam https://t.co/a0fuSyrL0w

@MichaelEMann @ltgrusselhonore believe Big Red would whole heartily agree with @MichaelEMann on this.
I am so grateful for my amazing editor @jcheiffetz at @OneSignalPub, who encouraged me to write this book. Not just a climate book because ultimately it's about the hope, however small, that we can save us. All of us, together. https://t.co/N0oLSSD7l1
@KHayhoe Omg I knew you were long suffering, but there's something about you patiently nodding endlessly that is just *too much* Katharine!

There’s been a lot of chatter from @ScottMorrisonMP’s government around “net zero emissions by 2050”. It is all just chat - but even if they did decide to commit to the target, without interim targets, it would be far too late. Here’s my take: #auspol
@KHayhoe @GretaThunberg And so many people (in the US, at least) don’t understand the difference between the federal deficit and the federal debt. Sigh.

“The climate crisis is very real. But it is not unsolvable. And it’s not too late to act. Every ounce of carbon we don’t burn makes things better. There is still time to create a better future” @MichaelEMann #NewClimateWar (p. 258). https://t.co/zgO4dNMKBZ
@KHayhoe @cpeck3 it's the little things that count
UPDATE: @chrislhayes reached out to @apple and asked how it could claim to strongly support the Clean Energy Standard in the reconciliation bill while CEO @tim_cook is part of the @BizRoundtable's multi-million dollar campaign to defeat the bill Apple did not respond https://t.co/a73anw7GLV
@KHayhoe They're trying their best to turn activists against one another, we can't let them win
@KHayhoe Yes and this is a critical data point, as it shows strategic intent by oil firms and Twitter to specifically target and disinform those seeking facts about climate.

@GretaThunberg It's also important to point out the responsibilities that companies bear. Just 90 companies are responsible for 2/3 of carbon emissions since the dawn of the Industrial Era. 20 companies? 1/3 of emissions since 1965. Source: https://t.co/YxiMCNdXEH https://t.co/yXQtRHXEqE

@KHayhoe So I'm not imagining this! On the plus side, it makes greentrolling awfully convenient.
@wblau @AlexSteffen @BusinessGreen No worries. Lots more tomorrow and Friday too with @AlokSharma_RDG, @MichaelEMann @lucysiegle and many others.
@GretaThunberg Thank you so much for highlighting this. Many don't realize that climate is changing due to CUMULATIVE emissions, not annual. US cumulative emissions are nearly double those of China + many times greater than those of any other country. It has the greatest responsibility to lead.
@KiraOnClimate @Eco1stArt You'll find more info here: @KHayhoe Look up https://t.co/DOj4ciBVIU and globalwierding, also @EWGnetwork and @Pembina for what net zero means. Thank you for asking the right questions! I also like @mzjacobson's work and info (see youtube on latest book).
I am so honoured to speak alongside @GretaThunberg at today’s #Youth4Climate #PreCOP conference in Milan. We will do our best to represent the amazing array of young climate activists from all around the world who are calling out for #climatejustice https://t.co/Hrtdkqcf5E https://t.co/j7qsyHhrUe
What would be useful is if the community could create a set of weights (and pre-calculated weighted fields) in-line with AR6 assessed warming ranges for researchers to use for their own analyses. Otherwise we will see a lot of too-warm unweighted CMIP6 results in future papers.
@annalappe @KHayhoe @cleancreatives We will come to rely on and tweet "help" to @CleanCreatives endlessly, I fear. (so glad they are on the case). Sending you all THANKS for all you do and negativity you have to encounter.
@annalappe @exxonmobil @Twitter @cleancreatives I was getting them in my feed SO OFTEN that I finally blocked them. It's unreal.
@KHayhoe Dr. Evil is....a cat 😂😹
Very grateful to my co-host, Dr. Evil, for his support in making this, my very first TikTok video. More to come! https://t.co/VQmvHKHVNw
@KHayhoe I just had to do that again, moments after I posted this comment.
@annalappe @KHayhoe @exxonmobil @Twitter This is a conversation we'd love to have with @TwitterMktg. It's clear that their platform is being used to mislead the public about Exxon's climate commitments. @HipHopCaucus has a petition with thousands of signatures asking Twitter to remove fossil fuel ads like this one.
@KHayhoe I get at least three Exxon ads a day. I am committed to reply each time - Exxon lied. People died. It does get wearisome.
@KHayhoe Every bit of warming that we manage to avoid is good. Contributing to this will be different things to different people. We all should do what we can within the framework of our life. Beyond that, it is the system that needs to be changed.
@KHayhoe This tactic is actually an attack on the advocate's credibility using straw-man arguments and red herrings. It's a psychological defense mechanism to make it easier to dismiss a critic. "Unless you're a vegan bike rider, you can't tell me to change my light bulbs!"
@Lexcyn @MccobbDavid It is very basic: gases with vibrational & rotational bands in IR frequencies absorb the heat emitted by the earth and re-emit it all directions, which means half goes down and half goes up. That’s what we call “trapping”. Pls update ur understanding here. https://t.co/lpaPPSaqOV

In-depth discussion w/ inspiring @khayhoe-why facts are not enough: how we need to begin essential climate conversations w/ shared values, how today's choices "will literally determine our future." An eloquent, urgent call to action in divisive times https://t.co/UEOHh23BuS
I am so grateful for the fantastic network of people I have met and work with on this issue (too many to name, you know who you are). But particularly to @VolcanoJenni for believing I could start something like this & @Volcanologist for being the most incredible PI & mentor.
@KHayhoe I love both of those GIFs, but this one is definitely my favourite. This is you quietly waiting for someone to finish their ‘misguided statement thinly veiled as a question’, before you set them straight in your usual patient but direct way.
@KHayhoe @jcheiffetz @OneSignalPub I'm loving it so far!!
@KHayhoe Your cat looks just like my orange tabby, Oliver! First time I EVER clicked on a TikToc image, but not quite enough to persuade me to download the app....

@KHayhoe Naomi Oreskes: "people in the North wore clothes made of cotton picked by slaves. But that did not make them hypocrite [abolishionists]. It just meant..they were..part of the slave economy, and..knew it. That is why they..change[d] the system, not just their clothes."

@KHayhoe Have a great talk.
@KHayhoe Thank you for all the excellent and important work you do on climate science and communications, Dr. Hayhoe. You’re the best! ❤️❤️❤️
@KHayhoe @adrien4ej I've received these too! Didn't realize they were targeted harassment. I wonder about the utility of many of us repeatedly reporting them to Twitter as political ads. (I've done that sometimes, but more as an act of impulsive rage than strategy!)
As I prepared to interview @KHayhoe tonight I began to wonder if she'd cloned herself: from @jimmykimmel to the @JFKLibrary she's been everywhere sharing positive messages about climate change action. Can't wait to chat more about her new book "Saving Us". https://t.co/QNZZP2x2PL

@Confusedaboutl4 @LeviTD @GretaThunberg (I should have actually said yes - but it's the US that is also massively under-reporting).
@Confusedaboutl4 @LeviTD @GretaThunberg No sir. As I already said, pre-satellite estimates of the ratio of US to Chinese emissions are the SAME as new satellite estimates. The only difference? BOTH totals are greater. Yes, the US too. Learn more: https://t.co/OwPm4AQY5p
@Run_GRP @LeviTD @GretaThunberg Indep. estimates prior to the satellite TRACE project's results showed that China's 2019 emissions were about double those of the US. Satellite verification showed no big change in their proportional responsibility: tho EACH is **greater than reported** https://t.co/OwPm4AQY5p
@LeviTD @GretaThunberg It does help to address the zombie myth that "why should we do anything if India and China aren't on board" ... but you're right, it will not inspire action. What will is showing that it's in their own best interests to act.

@KHayhoe I'm trying to come up with an analogy that properly captures the logic here. One would be earlier environmental campaigns like lead and CFCs; there wasn't anything problematic about someone campaigning against these before completely eliminating them from their own lives.
@KHayhoe I've been having fun poking at their hypocrisy (as nearly all the commenters below these tweets do). I use examples that contrast their greenwashing with the impacts of their business practices. But the real solution is for Twitter to not accept greenwashing ads anymore.
@How2CrackANut @KateRaworth On that topic, I'm currently reading (and thinking about) @KHayhoe's SAVING US (which is helpful, yet depressing & maddeningly frustrating). But what I'm most recommending these days is the brilliant & powerful essay collection, ALL WE CAN SAVE. 💯💪❤️ https://t.co/Y5TPrh2B0u
@KHayhoe It's like saying that an overweight doctor can't tell you to lose weight.

“Climate change communication is more likely to persuade people when the message and messenger resonate with the audience’s values and identities, Goldberg said.” https://t.co/PwMPiet3T1
@KHayhoe It's a bit like saying those who want a change in leadership at their place of work or wherever must stop taking orders from the current boss, because it implies you have a choice when you don't.
@KHayhoe No not for you to implement, that's my line of work. I wonder how the business model would work. What's the value over Wikipedia or your site where all the facts are there for free already. Lots to ponder!

@johnlangab @KHayhoe ‘Plans for electricity were drawn by candlelight’
@ClimateHuman @KHayhoe Also, since our bodies--and the bodies of all our kin--are majority carbon (dry mass), the trolls' language of "carbon-free" is non-sensical. Public discourse should stop vilifying carbon and instead vilify fossil fuels.
@KHayhoe Let he who is without sin cast the first stone.
Surely we can solve the climate catastrophe before things become much worse. SAVING US by @KHayhoe, climate scientist & lead author of the national climate assessments, is about how we can talk to each other. I love the "Why We Fear Solutions" chapter. https://t.co/mtPA8Nh7YW
@KHayhoe You can not change a closed system you find yourself inside of from outside itself, only from within.
"If I never flew, never got in a car, never ate meat, avoided electricity and wore hemp, would you listen then or would you think I was just a weird militant hippy?" https://t.co/Bp4cXsenXG
@KHayhoe Critisizing people for interfering with an omnipresent system™️ which they dare to critisize is perfidious or just not clever. I mean, according to the Bible even Jesus himself had his "weak" moments as a human. But those don't increase his legacy since he was not a hypocrite.

@KHayhoe @GretaThunberg "Cumulative" is a much better word that "historical" too....they are, after all, still with us and impacting.
@KHayhoe @Kronenberg211 I ask them how they feel about taxes. Often these are the same people who will say it's government theft. So I tell them stop driving on roads, heating homes, Healthcare, etc. We can push back on their lunacy also. Of course both arguments are silly.
@KHayhoe If you haven’t achieved a goal, you’re not allowed to have a goal? Absurd.
@KHayhoe Thanks @KHayhoe, that's a good read. Like I said, I struggle with this one. We need the policy and investment/funding to provide a way out of this, but the result is still individual change. Also 100% onboard with those companies contributing significantly to the fix.
@KHayhoe "Dr Evil will get people's attention" https://t.co/PzjMnh6G1U
On it. https://t.co/dmVYz94Cvt
@KHayhoe it's not really an analogy, but during peak Corona lock-down emissions only dropped by 17%. This underscores while individual behavior can have an impact, yet most of emissions are beyond direct control of individuals, and that climate change is inherently a political problem
Doctors must be not only disease free, but incapable of contracting disease. https://t.co/o3gu7hryl1

@kevinthorley @KHayhoe @GretaThunberg It’s up to individuals to hammer home to corporations that we want solutions NOW! People keep using harmful products if they think there’s no alternative. Alternatives are here….they just need rolling out now, not in ten years time. And those who don’t know, need educating!
@AlexGelle @KHayhoe Alexxxx ♥️♥️♥️ You lovely human ✨
@KHayhoe From public health: we must change the context so the default choice is positive- you are a great example why. Humans will ALWAYS choose to visit their father in this situation, even the most climate aware. So if we rely only on people choosing among bad options we are sunk.
@KHayhoe "No, my position is that I want the condition of humanity to get better and I think taking reasonable steps to lower carbon emissions would be conducive to that goal. I'm NOT saying to immediately force emissions to zero regardless of the cost.
Thank you @KHayhoe for this extraordinary gift. I’m now going to go talk about it some more. 😉 17/17

@KHayhoe Our society and infrastructure are systemically dependent on fossil fuel. Today’s system forces us to use fossil fuels if we are to live adequately and participate effectively in society. Individual consumers cant fix the problem, we need topdown system change.

The AR6 took a novel (and I think improved) approach to future warming projections. Rather than simply using the CMIP6 mean, they used three different weighted CMIP6 estimates – with weights based model agreement with observed temperatures over the past few decades. https://t.co/3IS81yTInJ
Right now most folks doing assessments would use the dashed lines, even though they are inconsistent with the best estimate of warming in the AR6. This is because there is currently not any gridded future warming projections available that are consistent with AR6 assessed warming

It also implies that decoupling rising emissions from economic growth isn't possible, which I hope is incorrect and don't think is proven.
As someone wiser than me said last time this was bouncing around: it's completely possible this conclusion is true, but given the methodology used, it was very unlikely the study would not reach this conclusion.
I notice that people who were boycotting (cancelling?) sports because they "didn't want to hear about politics" and wanted players to "shut up and dribble" are now super-pumped when athletes take political stances they like. This is shocking! Who could have seen this coming?!

@ThierryAaron @SunnySimons @drvolts @AndrewDessler @KevinClimate @70sBachchan @AliceClimate @AlexSteffen @IsakStoddard @jf_broderick Are you suggesting that because a fair outcome is implausible any outcome is implausible? I agree that rich countries should do their fair share, but I'm not sure how strong a constraint optimally fair outcomes is on all possible <2C outcomes.
@ClimateBen @drvolts @ThierryAaron @KevinClimate @70sBachchan @AliceClimate @AlexSteffen None of those current or stated policy projections involve large-scale net-negative emissions.
@jsabs But if that is the case you would still have to do a pretty rapid lift to avoid penalties if you are shutting down 40 percentage points of clean generation over two years (so as you suggest it wouldn't change things too much): https://t.co/mu0PSVz6oC
@jsabs That allows the deferral of grants or payments, but as its written does not imply a three year rolling window for the calculation of year-over-year clean energy changes, unless I am misinterpreting it (and, to be fair, the language is less than completely clear...).
@NatureAtCal @ESPM_Berkeley @whendeesilver @theAGU Congrats @whendeesilver!
@jsabs Is that an amendment to the draft text? It specifies both grants and payments are given relative to year-over-year changes in clean energy percentage: https://t.co/pCiObFEz80
@ClimateBen @drvolts @ThierryAaron @KevinClimate @70sBachchan @AliceClimate @AlexSteffen What is a reasonable assumption in this case. There is a growing published literature on current and stated policy outcomes available; are there any alternative estimates you would point to? https://t.co/Kb5gslItmg https://t.co/0VczBqTobv
"Nature-based storage projects sequestering carbon for < 100 years accounted for most proposals... (in total, more than 95% of CO2 volume). Its cheaper and easier to establish trees and enrich soils than to deploy nascent tech that capture carbon and store it geologically."
"Systems for accounting for carbon removal do not distinguish between short- and long-term forms of CO2 storage (see ‘Some carbon-removal strategies’). This distorts the market and discourages investments in more-durable solutions."
@KetanJ0 @duncan__c Illinois just passed a good bill with strong support for both existing nuclear and renewables. A very different picture from what happened in New York last year, thankfully: https://t.co/hdfaRFd4a1
Great piece in @Nature on lessons learned from @Microsoft and @stripe's efforts to do offsets and carbon removal right. One big takeaway is that we need a lot more scalable long-term carbon removal (and companies that are willing to pay a premium for it): https://t.co/0Qd9cTxjCU https://t.co/sTtmVmECT9

@SunnySimons @drvolts @AndrewDessler @ThierryAaron @KevinClimate @70sBachchan @AliceClimate @AlexSteffen For 1.5C; 2C requires ~1.7% global emissions reductions (relative to current levels) per year starting today. Of course, the longer emissions take to fall the larger that annual reduction number becomes.
@PFriedling @drvolts @AndrewDessler @ThierryAaron @KevinClimate @70sBachchan @AliceClimate @AlexSteffen We have a helpful comparison of simple (no-net-negative emissions) pathways for 50% chance of 1.5C and a 66% chance of 2C here: https://t.co/mTz8QN1AAb
@drvolts @ThierryAaron @KevinClimate @70sBachchan @AliceClimate @AlexSteffen To put it another way, bending the curve of future warming down to 2C is a lot easier if you are on track for ~2.4C than if you are on track for 4C.
@drvolts @ThierryAaron @KevinClimate @70sBachchan @AliceClimate @AlexSteffen I don't think its a particularly likely without significantly enhanced ambition by countries relative to what we are seeing today. But I'm more optimistic that its a real possibility now than I was five years ago given progress made on clean energy and enhanced commitments: https://t.co/r1UwqIzLf9
@drvolts @ThierryAaron @KevinClimate @70sBachchan @AliceClimate @AlexSteffen The broader point here is that there is a world of difference in emissions pathways implied by an additional 0.5C warming between 1.5C and 2C.
@drvolts @ThierryAaron @KevinClimate @70sBachchan @AliceClimate @AlexSteffen A 50% chance of it, sure. Maybe a 66% chance if we get our act together quickly. Thats consistent with getting to net-zero by 2080 or so, which isn't crazy given the progress we have made: https://t.co/vQQkiflqSP
@ThierryAaron @KevinClimate @70sBachchan @AliceClimate @drvolts @AlexSteffen Thankfully this bit has not aged well: "Indeed, as we’ll see, stopping at 2 degrees C is getting close to impossible as well. There is no longer any reasonable chance of avoiding “dangerous” climate change, so 1 degree C vs. 2 degrees C is a somewhat academic debate."
@micsolana @kimmaicutler We will see what happens with Diablo; but more broadly there are a lot of existing US nuclear plants at risk of closure. The design of CEPP distinctly disfavors a large year-over-year decline in clean energy generation (which shutting down nuclear plants tends to result in).
@JuliusBusecke @pangeo_data @charlesstern Let me stick it up on GitHub for you.
We estimate that PG&E will be on the line for between $500 million to $1 billion in penalties depending on how fast they install clean energy in 2024 and 2025. They will also potentially be at risk for missing out on an additional $500 million in incentives.
So, if you are a utility planning to close existing nuclear plants, you better be in a position to replace 100% of their clean energy generation in the year they retire – rather than down the road – to avoid penalties under the CEPP. Utilities may want to reconsider accordingly.
Fully replacing Diablo with other clean generation in the year it is retired is a much more difficult task than replacing it over a longer period of time. Based on the CPUC, the clean firm gen and long-term storage intended to replace Diablo won’t be online until 2028 or later.
Because Diablo’s generation is baked into PG&E’s baseline, they will have to pay a penalty for any decline in clean energy percentage in the year in which each generating unit is retired, but are not eligible for any future clean generation incentives as they fill in the gap.
This is an important restriction: the ultimate replacement of Diablo’s generation with other clean energy sources will not result in any incentives — and will not reduce the penalty — unless it happens in the same year that Diablo is retired.
The magnitude of this penalty depends on the extent to which Diablo’s generation can be replaced by other clean generation in the year it retires.
PG&E is planning to decommission Diablo Canyon that is responsible for approximately half of their current clean energy in 2024 and 2025 (with one of the two generating units retiring in each year). This will very likely result in PG&E paying a penalty under the CEPP.
Finally, to avoid manipulation of the system, no incentives can be awarded for year-over-year increases in clean gen if it remains below baseline levels. This prevents utilities from removing existing clean gen and then being rewarded with incentives for filling the gap back in.
In addition, the CEPP includes a penalty for utilities that fail to achieve a 4 percentage point increase in clean generation. Specifically, utilities suffer a $40 per MWh penalty for the diff between their year-over-year increase in clean gen and the 4 percentage points target.
These $150 per MWh payments are given each year based on year-over-year changes. Effectively this means that each addition of clean generation gets a one-time payment, assuming the utility exceeds the minimum 4 percentage point increase in the year in which it is installed.
For example, if a utility had 20% of the electricity generation from clean sources in 2022, and increased that to 24% in 2023, they would be eligible for a payment of $150 per MWh for 2.5% (4% minus 1.5%) of their total generation.
CEPP awards utilities with a payment of $150 per MWh for an increase in year-over-year clean energy generation of over 1.5 percentage points if the total increase year-over-year exceeds 4 percentage points.
If the proposed Clean Energy Performance Program becomes law it will severely penalize utilities for closing existing nuclear plants. We estimate that closing the Diablo Canyon plant would cost PG&E somewhere between $500 million and $1.5 billion: https://t.co/7mBlxZxClY
@JuliusBusecke @pangeo_data @charlesstern Right now its quite small (just annual weights for the CMIP6 MMM that can be applied to each gridcell). Ultimately it would be good to have specific model weights or something similar to allow better exploration of uncertainties.
@AGrinsted They have all the other CMIP6 SSPs, but not SSP1-1.9 unfortunately.
@KrantzLena The observational data is from the Berkeley Earth dataset.
@amharmer High latitude regions warm a lot more than the global average, unfortunately.

@ThijssenR (the 1930s in Norway were roughly half as warm as today, that is)
@ThijssenR Half as warm. But yes, there was a distinctly warm period in the 1930s in higher latitude land areas. Here is the Arctic, for example: https://t.co/UaYFM3sguE
@jgladwig Just the AR6, given that assessed warming ranges just came out. On CMIP6 weighting see Liang et al, Ribes et al, and Tokarska et al (@kasia_tokarska)

@JensTerhaar Pretty sure the assessed warming values are only applied to surface air temperatures in the AR6; I think precipitation and other climate variables just use the unweighted CMIP6 ensemble.

@ryanavent @sidkap_ @binarybits The most recent IPCC report gives a zero emissions commitment (ZEC) close to zero, based on the results of the ZECMIP experiments. They say its likely < 0.3C with a best estimate of ~0C, which is the same as I report in my piece. See Chapter 4 (section 4.71): https://t.co/rqVxnPl5XI
Accidentally exported a too-small version of the figure at the start of the thread. Here is a crisper version: https://t.co/HfmN6i9r1D
To create the figure in at the start of the thread, I've scaled each grid cell in the CMIP6 multimodel mean by the ratio of AR6 assessed GSAT to CMIP6 mean GSAT. This pattern scaling works reasonably well for the mean, but does not provide an easy way to account for uncertainties
(Monthly or annual resolution is fine, and only need tas field)
@gilbeaq @SizeMichael Sure, thats why 2021 coal use will still be below 2019 levels despite a an uptick. But expensive gas is still contributing to more coal generation this year, and will likely slow down retirements relative to a world of cheap gas (though expensive gas helps renewables/nuclear)
@hausfath I think it isn't these people as salespersons, but the idea is just too welcome and comfortable. It promises to solve both climate and biodiversity .. but is seriously flawed if you think a bit more.
Now if only there was more #climatefinance to meet current policies, pledges, and targets... https://t.co/4ijaikPa1o
@hausfath I don’t mean to make too much of this. What you say is all true until it gets to “you have to time it to a given year”. You don’t. You have 3 years to do it without penalty. But you have to keep moving … so if you don’t achieve +4% in year x, you have until year x+1 to get to 8%
Important thread for anyone who may use CMIP6 for regional work. ~0ne-third of CMIP6 models run implausibly warm, so IPCC AR6 authors created *global* "assessed" temp projections to correct for this. But no guidance (yet) on correcting the CMIP6 output at *regional* scales. https://t.co/9iTx3qdjdY
Agree. AND - all those “short term” solutions on the left are far more likely to have benefits outside carbon, whereas DAC has fewer in exchange for longer term storage. Wouldn’t it be great to easily see the other benefits beside the carbon benefit? #corebenefitslabel https://t.co/blippAYLs3
@hausfath It says in the SPM that ocean heat uptake is also constrained. There is also a NCC paper about constraining past with future uptake, that makes me even more suspicious, given that almost all is taken up in the Southern Ocean & that all models don't represent obs in sea ice trends
@ClimateOfGavin We’re putting NCAR’s Climate model, inputs and outputs into https://t.co/r3Majter6j for free access by anyone. Some CMIP6 data is already there. Happy to host more datasets, once we know what people want to use and share.
@hausfath Interesting. Thanks for highlighting. Would be heroic to get relicensing done at this point.
@hausfath Regarding the Ribes et al. method (which is not a model weighting), we have recently worked on (and submitted) an extension to the regional or local scales -- using both GSAT and local observations to build the constraint. More on this soon (I hope)!

It can be hard to acknowledge the huge role luck often plays in getting to where we are. The key is to understand that being lucky does not undermine your achievements - but instead to acknowledge which bits of your career trajectory are hard for others to replicate.
