@jstewartIndy I see your logic, but it ignores that many of the world’s top scientists and faculty, including at Purdue, happen to be Chinese. We want the best and the brightest here.

The state loses out on $700,000 per degree holder in increased taxes and spending when they leave the state, as most out-of-state and international students do.
That means they have less to spend on the tuition subsidies that actually matter, for low-income students.

21% of STEM grad students and 10% of total grad students @LifeAtPurdue are Chinese nationals. Given work visa program changes, they are unlikely to find a job in the U.S. That means Purdue is training the workforce of a foreign adversary. Indiana must stop this. For @indystar:

@capitalweather @KashaPatel @Harry_Stevens @niko_tinius In 2020, we found that hurricane intensification rate increases very quickly at warmer temperatures in simple simulations — consistent with recent observed trends. agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10… (3rd Key Point)

#Milton has rapidly intensified over Gulf amid a marine heat wave. These heat waves - intensified by climate change - make it twice as likely a hurricane reaches Category 4 or 5.

I posted on my website my lecture notes from four lectures on tropical cyclones from my spring 2024 tropical meteorology course, in case they are of use to others: web.ics.purdue.edu/~dchavas/EAPS5…

“Not the end of the world” by @_HannahRitchie . Highly recommended. Audiobook by author is on Spotify.
A positive message about our tremendous human progress in solving problems in sustainability — and how to most effectively keep solving our problems.

A relevant note: we found in 2020 that power outage risk is driven by weak hurricanes, contrary to what we typically expect for most impacts. Beryl is a nice example. nature.com/articles/s4159…

Bryan Norton discovered that the Whataburger map could be used to show where power was still on or had been restored in Houston. “The fact that Whataburger’s app is giving us that bit of hope — well, it doesn’t get more Texas than that,” Norton said. wapo.st/3WiWapd

Exciting work just published, led by @funing11 !

Why does the United States have more tornadoes than South America? It likely has something to do with the smoothness of the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean Sea as compared to the roughness of the Amazon rainforest. Learn more at ow.ly/3LE150SrQUE.

Thank you, I am so honored that the committee chose me! I have been very fortunate to be able to work with so many fantastic people, especially my many awesome students and postdocs doing great work and lifting me up while at @PurdueEAPS .

@alli_wing @apuffycloud @AndrewDessler Oh i am bad at twitter and only just saw this. Yes our paper showed intensification rate increases very rapidly with increasing sst agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10… @AndrewDessler i shared this in a different thread — conceptually i say warmer = faster evaporation rate = faster fuel input
English
@apuffycloud @AndrewDessler @danchavas Yes fixed SST. Emanuel and Sobel (2013) agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10… looked at response of potential intensity to different types of forcing. Not sure if TC intensification rate has been looked at specifically.

I'm looking for simple physical reasoning for why hurricanes intensify faster in a warmer climate. Who can get that into a tweet?

@GabrielZ_Storm Oh congratulations, that’s awesome! We’re very close together!

@afadames Agreed! I still feel like the same dummy I was in undergrad haha

@climatedynamics @AndrewDessler @CColose @aramirezreyes Just chatted with andy earlier this week! Yes two theories both say rate increases with PI, but not an intuitive explanation (and underestimates true dependence on T). But I’d say higher PI comes in part from faster evaporation rate with warming — so fuel gets pumped in faster.
