@alexwild I *just* visited the National Museum of Anthropology in México City (fresh on my mind — yesterday!) and boy, hands down, my favorite and most impressive museum I’ve ever visited! Why? The collections are MASSIVE and the exhibits are so well curated; indigenous peoples and civilizations of Mesoamerica are represented excellently in space & time. To top it all off, the architecture is stunning!

Palm Springs just recorded its heaviest hourly rainfall on record, and intense tropical downpours could continue for hours in the Coachella Valley. Urban and flash flooding will further escalate in coming hours throughout the SE CA deserts. #CAwx t.co/Im37SgdzNf

Montevideo, the Capitol of Uruguay and home to about 2 million people, is out of water in the midst of a prolonged drought. The government is trying to secure bottled water as an emergency measure.

Interesting to see what the is up to right now: looks like it is about to shed a warm-core — especially considering the prevailing easterlies. Wonder how this might affect the upcoming season...

New article out in & where we (Chris Maupin & myself) briefly recount how scientists have sought to understand past year-to-year () temperature variations in the marine realm: agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.co

Mainly focusing on coral-derived records, we also highlight a recent article by Ong et al. (2022; agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.co) who add a new genus to the toolkit.

My favorite paper that I've read this year — a look at how confusion between inferential uncertainty and outcome variability creates all sorts of problems — is now out in PNAS.

Here's the paper: pnas.org/doi/abs/10.1073/pnas.

Here's the thread I wrote about the preprint last April: fediscience.org/@ct_bergstrom/

A nice commentary in by @loopdlupien about a newly published article on eastern African paleoclimate change by Baxter & colleagues (link: nature.com/articles/s41586-023) - can simulations of future climatic trends in eastern Africa be reconciled with modern trends?
