According to an experimental forecast issued in June, 50% of the global oceans could experience heat wave conditions by September 2023.
Without ocean warming, that predicted heat wave area would drop from 50% of the global ocean to 25%.

Marine heatwave research has primarily focused on sea surface temperature extremes. While surface marine heatwaves can have dramatic impacts on marine ecosystems, new research shows how extreme warming along the seafloor can also have significant impacts.

In the thrall of a 22-year megadrought, the record snowpack in SW Colorado was a welcome break. When scientists installed a state-of-the-art observing network in the East River watershed in the fall of 2021, they couldn’t have imagined a year like this.

This graphic shows the difference in CA reservoir levels between Dec 1 and Jan 24.
Shasta: from 57% historical avg to 86%
Oroville: from 55% historical avg to 109%!

ALT This graphic shows by the California Department of Water Resources shows the difference in California reservoir levels between December 1, 2022 and January 24, 2023. Shasta went from 57% of historical average to 86%. Oroville went from 55% historical average to 109%. Not all rises were as dramatic. Trinity went from 38% of historical average to 49%.

A series of atmospheric rivers in Dec-Jan, fueled by tropical moisture, flooded parts of the West with rain and snow in January 2023. The abundant precipitation caused landslides and dangerous travel conditions, but also helped improve drought conditions.

Decades of drought & a growing demand for water in the Colorado River Basin have brought Lake Mead to historic low water levels. Today, Landsat 9 shows the lake’s water level at 1,041—the lowest since the 1930s. eros.usgs.gov/media-gallery/…
