New from us: Health costs of wildfire smoke to rise under climate change Open access in npj Climate & Atmospheric Science doi.org/10.1038/s41612…

"#ClimateChange is likely to decrease prescribed burning effectiveness and increase total costs, therefore a rethink of best practice is required." 🔥 Clarke et al explore flexible #firemanagement for competing values in their exciting study. Read more: doi.org/10.1016/j.gloe…

Wildfire Futures is a new(ish) project me, @trentpenman, @BennettRen and a gaggle of other researchers work on. Give our twitter a follow and sign up to a newsletter if you want to learn more!

@katharinehaynes backatcha, Kat

@SciAtTheLocal Great work Hamish!

To manage wildfire risk, we need to limber up and get flexible Great to see this work from the NSW Bushfire Hub published doi.org/10.1016/j.gloe…

@anna_kosovac thanks Anna!

@SciAtTheLocal Congratulations! And in GEC no less! 🔥🔥🔥

@WHuiskamp @KetanJ0 @antsharwood thanks Willem, I'm mostly off this site now but you can find me on mastodon, linked in and substack, plus email anyway, short answer: there are well established links between ENSO & other drivers and fire risk, with lag effects too (ie not just same year). let's talk :)

@KetanJ0 @antsharwood . @SciAtTheLocal might be able to offer some insight here...

BREAKING: Australia is now officially on El Niño Alert. That makes it extremely likely El Niño will be declared Click my story for: - a reminder of what El Niño actually is - how it typically affects our weather - what it takes for the BoM to declare it weatherzone.com.au/news/australia…

Highly recommend this paper for your next journal club/reading group/lab catch up! A really insightful framework for thinking about the academic system and it’s role in a climate and biodiversity crisis. Thanks @SciAtTheLocal for leading our discussion 🍩 elifesciences.org/articles/84991

Nearly a billion dollars a year is flowing into the organized climate change counter-movement, preventing climate policies. It’s what we’re up against. Not just us climate scientists - all of us caring about the future, about our children. smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/mee…

All the talk about #ElNino is really about ‘will Australia be dry’, and hen it come to making Australia dry there is a lot more than just El Niño. So what do the non-Australian models think Australia’s winter will be like? Dry… plus warm in the south climate.copernicus.eu/charts/package…

@cosmicpudding @KingJames @CSIRO_ATNF should be a @StephenCurry30 ball. otherwise, perfect 😆

Making improvements to the #basketball hoop at the observatory 😁 chains are more immune to bindis than nets! And I’m pretty sure this is the only @KingJames ball to ever make it to the @CSIRO_ATNF #ASKAP telescope 😊🏀

Feeling exhausted AND cynical / depersonalised AND ineffective? Then you meet a common definition of burnt out. Enjoyed the End of Burnout by Jonathan Malesic. Lots of good points about cultural and systemic factors. Check out Malesic's substack: jonmalesic.substack.com

Did not expect to pump out a post a week for six months. (Will almost certainly not keep it up) If offbeat #scicomm is your thing, check out Future Fire hclarke.substack.com/archive?sort=n…

Thanks to @BigMeanInternet for mentioning my forthcoming book called The Palestine Laboratory (@paleslaboratory), out with @VersoBooks in May, on the latest @LARBBooks podcast. Revealing surveillance and hi-tech skullduggery: lareviewofbooks.org/av/mckenzie-wa…
