How does climate change affect the total amount of water stored on land (TWS)? In our new study in NatureClimate led by Yadu Pokhrel, we project TWS drops in many regions, especially in the southern hemisphere, using an ensemble of ISIMIP models nature.com/articles/s4155…

Climate Central CO2 levels will spend several weeks at more than 50% above pre-industrial this year It took about 200 years for us to increase atmospheric CO2 by 25%. The next 25% only took just over 30 years. The build-up of CO2 in the atmosphere is accelerating x.com/MetOffice_Sci/…

Dams cause many negative social and ecological impacts, but there are also positive benefits—could reduce global population exposed to floods by 20%! Nature Communications MSU @MSU_Egr_News nature.com/articles/s4146…

#EUGreenDeal call for proposals reality check: Just got word that 142 proposals were submitted for the topic to which we responded, and that the plan is to fund 4-6 proposals (3-4% success rate)... Hard to imagine how much time researchers waste on preparing unfunded proposals...

#Vacancy: Jochen Hinkel and COASTAL ADAPT at the Global Climate Forum in Berlin are hiring a PhD student on economics of #adaptation to #sealevelrise under Deep Uncertainty. SPP1889_SeaLevel More info: globalclimateforum.org/wp-content/upl…

Massive temperature contrast in Europe this weekend. Hot in the south and frigid in the north. Snow in the middle, a lot of it.

Today at 2PM; involved in an interesting Panel discussion on the future of the EU adaptation strategy

Our new paper out today! People normally define #ElNino by the temperature of the ocean, but this is problematic because climate change is increasing the temperature of the ocean... See here our elegant solution to create a "relative" index for ENSO.

Very excited about starting my postdoc IVM - VU Amsterdam, working with Jeroen Aerts and colleagues on the COASTMOVE project! But also sad to leave CRSLR_CAUKiel after wonderful 12 years Universität Kiel CAU 🎓. Thanks for everything!

Looking for a challenge?! New Tenure track position "Hydroclimate - societal interactions" at the Water and Climate department IVM - VU Amsterdam werkenbij.vu.nl/ad/ud-in-hydro…

Our manuscript on the comparison of different #longitudinal survey data and their implications for socio-hydro models is now online and open for discussion Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences (NHESS)! 👉 nhess.copernicus.org/preprints/nhes…

Climate change is likely increasing the intensity of tropical cyclones, according to a new assessment of 90+ peer-reviewed articles on the state of the science on tropical cyclones (tropical storms, hurricanes & typhoons) and #ClimateChange. climate.gov/news-features/…

Very happy to share that our paper on #Extremefloods got accepted for publication in nature reviews; coordinated by Bruno Merz #GfZ rdcu.be/ctNdR

I'm thrilled to share that my first paper just got published in Scientific Data. We developed a spatially-explicit harmonized global dataset of critical infrastructure 🚉🛫🏥🏫.

Excited to announce that our CHANCE (Climate cHange impActs on extreme sea levels iN Coastal watErs) proposal got granted! This means that in the coming 4 years we can continue to work on improving extreme sea level projections 🥳 Together with José Antolínez TU Delft Civil Engineering and Geosciences IVM - VU Amsterdam
