Unwetter-Liveblog: ++ Im Südwesten vielerorts Jahrhunderthochwasser ++
Im Südwesten wird an mehreren Flusspegeln Jahrhunderthochwasser gemeldet. Bayerns Ministerpräsident Söder machte sich im besonders betroffenen Landkreis Augsburg ein Bild von der Lage. Die Entwicklungen im Liveblog.
@tagesschau Liebe Redakteure, das hatten wir doch nun geklärt, das mit dem #Jahrhunderthochwasser. Macht bitte euren Zuschauer:innen/Leser:innen klar, dass diese Wetter Ereignisse die Regel sein werden. Die Fakten dazu liefern euch sehr kompetente Fachleute, die für das #PIK oder den IPCC arbeiten oder eure Wettermoderatoren, wie Sven Plöger, Karsten Schwanke, @terliwetter
So, we are basically "right on track" regarding the #CimateCrisis, as the #Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (#PIK) had analyzed in its scenarios in December of 2022:
#ClimateBreakdown (as we know it), as all likely-to-be-implemented #climate measures are completely unlikely to limit #GlobalWarming to +1.5°C. If we will manage to limit it to "just" +2.0°C is more unlikely by the month, as warming is probably still accelerating!
Deforestation and warming lock rainforest in dry and damaged grassland state
“It turns out, fire is the important factor for locking the #Amazon in a grassland state, preventing 56-86% of the Amazon from regrowing, depending on the strength of #ClimateChange”, lead author Markus Drüke (#PIK) explains. “We know that reversing the Amazon #forest loss becomes increasingly harder the more forest is lost, and our study shows that fire puts another lever onto this coherence."
A recent, rapid heating of the world's oceans has alarmed scientists concerned that it will add to global warming. @BBCWorld News article with #PIK scientist Josef Ludescher: "If a new El Niño new comes on top of it, we will probably have additional global warming of 0.2-0.25C.
