Koll ends his talk with the quote: “We don’t inherit the Earth from our ancestors, we borrow it from our children.”

Koll (now focusing on marine heatwaves): We are now observing unprecedented open ocean temperatures in the Bay of Bengal of 32-34°C! Wow 🥵! These warm temperatures fuel cyclones - which in turn can cause sustained (both cool & extreme warm) temperature anomalies over land, associated with stronger updraft.

Roxy Koll (twitter.com/rocksea) now focuses on how ongoing Indo-Pacific warming is “warping” the Madden-Julien Oscillation () & modifying global rainfall patterns.

Now at - the lakeside building (E352) - Roxy Koll from the Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology (Pune) gives the Devendra Lal Memorial Medal lecture on his Indian Ocean/monsoon research.

A full on lineup here at the Indian & Southern Ocean (paleo)circulation session in S403b. First, Jim Wright provides a fresh (first?) look into Argentine drift sediments and the insights they hold regarding Neogene glaciation.

Now: Liz Sykes talks about the history of δ¹³C in the southeastern Indian Ocean and its implications for deglacial carbon change.
Take Home MEssage: Differential δ¹³C histories of proximal cores

Mark Yu, from , gives an interesting talk about reconstructing variability from sediment cores offshore the and finds that the isotopic difference between this record and foraminiferal records from the Arabian sea and Bay of Bengal, are a reflection of monsoon variability.

Now at S403b at : Pedro DiNezio presents research on Indian Ocean climate variability and its similarities across past global states and projected states for the future; in particular, Pedro focuses on the related hydroclimate response.

At the Science Advisors meeting right now at & here is a list of the top 5 most popular scientist-authored articles of 2022. I sense a theme!

Now at S405a () - Central University of Ph.D. student, Ammoose Jayan (also currently a Fulbright visitor at the ), talks about investigations in the Gulf of () focusing on paleoproductivity changes across the late Holocene using . Main result: lower productivity in Gulf of Mannar along with a relatively weaker summer winds during the Little Ice Age (), some ~500-700 years ago.

I wonder about the potential impact on coastal southern Indian societies & seafood intake during the time!

Now at (S405a): Tyler Winkler from talks about using “blue holes” from the Bahamian archipelago to track North Atlantic tropical variability over the last millennium - finds anomalously *intense* activity (inferred from several blue hole records) during the Little Ice Age () from 1500-1600 CE!

Interesting Monday morning () session at (S404) exploring the “nexus” of climate, environment, and humans. First few talks focused on the potential climatic implications for the trans-Eurasian Silk Route exchange.

Anyone on here planning to be at ? Perhaps some of you are interested in following someone live toot about ?

Over the last 10 years, I’ve been a fairly heavy conference tweeter - but aiming/trying to avoid Twitter this time around.

The #Paleontology world is blowing up:
— Robert #DePalma is accused of faking data in dino-killing #astroid paper (to scoop Melanie During who was publishing on the same subject)
— claims he can’t get the original data as the person who had it passed away
— data transparency is essential & should already be a requirement of EVERY journal!

How does #agriculture respond to compound #climate #extremes, and what are the main areas of uncertainty?

We review it!

An integrated understanding of #heat and #water in soil–plant–atmosphere dynamics is needed to suitably adapt cropping systems to compounding climate impacts

I’m recruiting MSc/PhD students to join my lab at #ClemsonUniversity in Fall ‘23! If you’re interested in #paleotempestology (#prehistoric #hurricanes), the hydro side of #paleoclimate, and/or records of #coastal or #hydrological #hazards, get in touch! We use multiple proxies, primarily #sediment & #treerings, to reconstruct #extreme events in the past. There are plenty of opportunities for #fieldwork & #labwork. If you’re going to #AGU22 & want to chat about this, let me know & we’ll meet up!

One of my favorite to see out in the wild - an Indian Paradise Flycatcher- this one seen a few weeks ago at Hunasinakere in Hassan Taluk, . They seem so ethereal & otherworldly upon first sight!

I missed these birbs - here is a House at the banks of the River & confluence of its tributaries in , , chomping down on rice leftover from an ash scattering (death) ritual.
