Open climate science is brave climate science
The pivotal role of climate science in advancing the UN Sustainable Development Goals underscores the urgent need for ample and open climate data sharing. While numerous large-scale endeavours highlight the efficacy of open climate data, we often encounter personal reservations in our scientific community. Here we argue that beyond infrastructure and service availability, a framework of acceptance and courage is needed in progressing data visibil…

Tambora 1815 as a test case for high impact volcanic eruptions
The eruption of Tambora (Indonesia) in April 1815 had substantial effects on global climate and led to the ‘Year Without a Summer’ of 1816 in Europe and North America. Although a tragic event—tens of thousands of people lost their lives—the eruption also was an ‘experiment of nature’ from which science has learned until today. The aim of this study is to summarize our current understanding of the Tambora eruption and its effects on climate as exp…
Arctic moisture source for Eurasian snow cover variations in autumn
Eurasian fall snow cover changes have been suggested as a driver for changes in the Arctic Oscillation and might provide a link between sea-ice decline in the Arctic during summer and atmospheric circulation in the following winter. However, the mechanism connecting snow cover in Eurasia to sea-ice decline in autumn is still under debate. Our analysis is based on snow observations from 820 Russian land stations, moisture transport using a Lagrang…
Essential Biodiversity Variables
A global system of harmonized observations is needed to inform scientists and policy-makers.

Winter air temperature variations in western Europe during the Early and High Middle Ages (AD 750–1300)
In this paper an attempt is made to reconstruct air temperature variations in winter (December, January and February) from 2500 documentary data over the period ad 750–1300 for a region comprising the Benelux countries, eastern France, western Germany, Switzerland and northern Italy. Anomalous (warm and cold) winters were classified on the basis of proxy information on frost, freezing of water bodies, duration of snowcover and untimely activity o…
