Prof of Weather and Climate Computing, UK National Centre for Atmospheric Science and University of Reading. Expat kiwi. Walker. Currently mainly at @bnlawrence@mastodon.nzhttps://bsky.app/profile/atmbnl.bsky.socialhttps://bsky.app/profile/atmbnl.bsky.social/post/3lgd5xxgjsm2mI am heartily sick of getting invitations to important meetings with strategic implications with only two or three weeks warning. It’s like people think we are sitting with empty diaries desperate to prioritise their meeting! NERC, UKSA I’m looking at you!22 Jan 2025 10:30 +0000at://did:plc:vpc2g4mxe7a2wkscpcsvcvlx/app.bsky.feed.post/3lgd5xxgjsm2mhttps://bsky.app/profile/atmbnl.bsky.social/post/3lczfvcaesp2pKudos to Australia for having an Earth System Science plan … which is in part about prediction, which is good, since they seem to have launched it next year 11 Dec 2024 09:10 +0000at://did:plc:vpc2g4mxe7a2wkscpcsvcvlx/app.bsky.feed.post/3lczfvcaesp2phttps://bsky.app/profile/atmbnl.bsky.social/post/3lcxpeypzm22rAnother set of bogus university rankings came out today (I think). They have sustainability ratings. Great, I think. Then I look at them, and I go, “What? Huh?” Then I look up the weightings. Their definition of sustainable is not mine!10 Dec 2024 16:54 +0000at://did:plc:vpc2g4mxe7a2wkscpcsvcvlx/app.bsky.feed.post/3lcxpeypzm22r
