PhD student @UniofExeter, seasonal forecasting of European shelf seas 🌡️ 🌊.
My second PhD paper has just been published🥳🥳 here we develop a new set of simple reservoir operating rules which allow us to integrate reservoirs into national-scale hydrological modelling across GB💧 hess.copernicus.org/articles/28/42…
My first PhD paper is out! We found increasing methane emissions over the North Slope of Alaska, and consistent late season emissions across the Arctic using atmospheric inverse modelling ❄️ #Arctic #Methane agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1029/20…
Sorry to rain on your parade @Telegraph 1. We haven't issued a denial 2. We aren't cloud seeding in UAE 3. Our weather and climate scientists are providing evidence-based comments to explain what happened 4. Read more from them at rdg.ac/49GVsW3 5. Jog on

At #EGU24 this week - come along to my talk on seasonal forecasting of European shelf seas (Friday 11:20am room 0.31/32, session CL4.3) if you just can't get enough of near-term climate prediction and/or marine applications!

The protest at COP28 by Licypriya Kangujam, a 12-year-old climate-justice activist from India, leads the frontpage of the Financial Times Neatly illustrates why these stunts can have so much impact Will be one of the defining images of this COP
What hazards and impacts can we now attribute to human induced climate change? See our review for the UK @theCCCuk led by Regan, with @richardabetts @StottPeter ukclimaterisk.org/independent-as…
Approaching 1.5°C: how will we know we’ve reached this crucial warming mark? The Paris Agreement does not define "temperature rise", so recognition of 1.5°C being reached may be delayed In @nature we propose the Current Global Warming Level metric nature.com/articles/d4158…
Cats and signal to noise paradox - what's not to like!
"The Signal to Noise Paradox from a Cat’s Perspective" Dr. Leo Saffin (@LeoSaffin) discusses a recently discovered phenomenon in forecasts on seasonal and longer timescales in this week's @UniRdg_Met weekly blog! blogs.reading.ac.uk/weather-and-cl…
Confused by the complexity of chaos, randomness, & extremes that we so often discuss in the context of weather and climate? I am really proud of this explainer that we have developed over the last 6 months- ft @emily_vosper @cabotinstitute @MetOffice_Sci youtube.com/watch?v=5fRhas…
Football has an opportunity to lead on communicating about the climate crisis to millions of fans. This video highlights #ShowYourStripes on @ReadingFC kits, redesigning club logos in impactful ways & players like @DianeCaldwell7 using their voices. youtu.be/v2aNikh_fbk
I've heard lots of chat lately such as "where's Summer gone!?" The UK is currently under a large low pressure system which @metoffice forecasts to deepen to ~985mb by tomorrow. But how rare is this? Is this just Summer? I've done some digging ... 👇👇

My poster and stocks&socks received roughly equal amounts of attention at #RMetSEarlyCareers Great conference - meteorology, climate and more discussion coming out of your ears ☀️☁️🌡️🌊

Who needs supercomputers?! Found the local @metoffice forecasting centre in Mousehole!


I published my first paper (yay!), check it out to see how we used hydrological signatures to understand where and how reservoirs are impacting streamflow across Great Britain 💧 agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1029/20…
