An eruption from the #HayliGubbi volcano in #Ethiopia resulted in a large ash cloud, visible here from space. 🌋

This impressive view was seen 36,000km above Earth by our Meteosat-12 satellite on 23 November at 13:40 UTC.

Sentinel-5P #TROPOMI measurements at ~11:00 UTC show most of the SO₂ emissions from #HayliGubbi spreading east in the upper troposphere. Plume contains ~44 kilotons of SO₂ (~0.04 Tg).

An explosive #eruption of Hayli Gubbi #volcano, located SE of Erta'Ale in the Afar Rift (Ethiopia), began at ~08:30 UTC on Nov 23. Eruption onset was fortuitously captured by a @planet.com overpass at 08:31 UTC. Hayli Gubbi has no record of Holocene eruptions. Toulouse VAAC reporting ash to ~15 km.

Búzios Scientific Statement

100 climate researchers, coordinated by @pik-potsdam.bsky.social & @iiasa.ac.at, released a joint statement to inform the #COP30 negotiations and provide guidance on difficult but doable global efforts designed to limit dangerous overshoot of 1.5°C as much as possible.

The Vietnamese Bach Ma Mountain Peak station recorded one-day rainfall of 1,739 mm - close to the global one-day record and perhaps a new record for the northern hemisphere. It is part of a deluge Viet Nam has seen in October, shattering 35 precip records. e.vnexpress.net/news/news/en...
Vietnam sees 35 rainfall records broken in October - VnExpress International
Vietnam's northern and central regions saw a total of 35 rain records broken in October alone as two storms, Matmo and Fengshen, caused unprecedented downpours.

Great dissection of where the world stands on climate 10 years after Paris: better than ever; worse than needed.

But lemme quibble a bit with the CO₂ₑ emissions pathways painted here.

I was recently invited to present my thoughts on the role of universities in the #climate crisis

Several audience members asked that I share my slides, so I've decided to post them here too as an open resource

I'd love any feedback, & for you to share examples of projects & best practice.

Long 🧵😊

Non-use agreement similar to the present-dat nuclear test-ban treaty, together with new Europe/Asia led dual-use satellite-based monitoring (non-use and also for aviation warning systems on volcanic ash) could be a practical way forward for the next decade, in my view. Finding out how to get there.

In this piece @carbonbrief.org still reports the warming by methane based on its increase in abundance (~25% of warming, and not the more correct much larger share in the emission-based methane forcing. Source: IPCC AR6. Do not forget #troposphericozone and other chemistry

Explainer: Will global warming ‘stop’ as soon as net-zero emissions are reached? - Carbon Brief
Warming is likely to more or less stop once net-zero emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2) is reached, meaning humans have the power to choose their climate future.

It is a thought proviking idea, using methane-consuming microbes to combat methane release at the source location (eg waste water, landfill, coal mines). What could be demonstrated already in this respect?

The Dutch offshore wind programme is in trouble. While 4.5 GW is in operation and another 1.5 GW under construction, the plan was to rapidly build out capacity to 21 GW by 2032. That is now out of reach.
My thoughts on how this happened, and what to do about it!
