@wacswain.bsky.socialThe peer-reviewed science shows that the primary factor behind the increase in wildfire extent in the western U.S. is increased aridity and fuel load due to human-caused warming. Via #AAAS #SciLine: www.sciline.org/climate/clim...

Show Post👏Congrats to Nature Geoscience on the December issue "The Future of Deep Ocean Drilling". With these publications Nature Geoscience & PAGES acknowledge this time of change and uncertainty for scientific ocean drilling and efforts to collaborate in L2S projects. 👉https://shorturl.at/sb3Cw
Show PostInside these ice cores are trapped ancient air bubbles. These will tell us about the climate 900,000 to 1.2 million years ago, meaning we can compare several warming and ice age cycles. It's been done by Beyond EPICA Oldest Ice - a collaboration of European scientists!
Show PostThis ice is old. Like, *OLD* old 🧊⌛ In search of climate data from 1.2 million years ago, scientists have just sampled some of the oldest ice on earth for the first time! The full ice core is 2.8km long - drilled deep through the thick East Antarctic ice sheet down to bedrock. #climatescience 🧪
