Very honored to have a piece on my work published as a feature in the @MIT News magazine @techreview. Thanks to @MITglaciology and @JuneauIcefield for great photos and sources of inspiration. technologyreview.com/2022/08…

Just did some number crunching using latest (Oct 1) ECMWF seasonal data, and I must say that I've never seen such high predictive confidence in a very wet California winter. This is a truly extraordinary forecast amid a record-strength El Niño event. [Thread: please read to end.]
ALT Model-relative sea surface temperature anomalies for November 2026–January 2027. The supplied grid is displayed without added smoothing or coastal filling. Beige marks land and gray marks missing ocean values. The main colour scale spans -2 to +10°F, with white at zero. Hot pink marks anomalies above +10°F. This map does not establish an operational ENSO category.

none of you are even close to copper pilled enough
NEW ODD LOTS:
The world faces a monumental shortage of copper
@tracyalloway and I talk to Ivanhoe Mines founder Robert Friedland (former hippie, friend of Steve Jobs) about the bottlenecks upon bottlenecks that stand in the way of opening new mines. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…
This piece is reminiscent of Grantland but for transit and grid wonks - give it a read!
Joyful read on the grid infrastructure hiding in plain sight all around us (and the injury woes of the 49ers) substack.com/home/post/p-195…

Great spotlight by @AGU_Eos on our new paper! "The first analysis of extreme calving events in Antarctica finds no correlation with climate change, highlighting the significance of common, smaller calving events for ice loss and instability" eos.org/research-spotlights/…
Joanna Millstein retweeted
We've got a new paper in GRL!!! Extreme value theory shows that extreme calving events have not increased in size over the last half century: agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.… with @jdmillstein @kaserafin

(1/3) New paper out! We look into the opposite of snow drought - what we're calling snow deluge. We found that California's 2023 snow deluge was a roughly ~1 in 54 year event, and broke records at 42% of monitoring sites.

So excited to share the first paper of my phd! If you’re interested in snow and snowmelt timing, I’d love for you to check out the paper and toolbox!
Congratulations to PhD student @EricGagliano
on his recently published paper in GRL presenting scalable tools to estimate snowmelt timing using Sentinel-1 SAR imagery! Check out the paper here: doi.org/10.1029/2023GL105303 and tools here: github.com/egagli/sar_snowme…

Grad school application season is in full swing! If you’re feeling a bit lost, I created this guide back when I was in the application process. It contains a timeline, advice, templates, and external resources. Hope it’s helpful! docs.google.com/document/d/1…
