2/9 "#Coronal #holes (#CHs) are the source of #high-#speed #streams (#HSSs) in the #solar #wind, whose interaction with the slow solar wind creates #corotating #interaction #regions (#CIRs) in the #heliosphere."
3/9 "Whenever the CIRs hit the #Earth, they can cause #geomagnetic #storms. We develop a method to predict the strength of CIR/HSS-driven geomagnetic storms directly from #solar #observations using the CH areas and associated #magnetic #field #polarity."

➡️L’évolution des émissions de #GES de la 🇫🇷, ses régions et en 🇪🇺

📣New #Paper with @Tasos_Kitsos and @r_ortegaargiles hot🔥off the @RegionalStudies press: 'Digital economy in the UK: regional productivity effects of early adoption' doi.org/10.1080/003434… [1/n]
While we know a lot about the importance of #internet related technologies and digitisation practices to #economic performance and #productivity , we don't know much about the long-term effects of the early adoption of such technologies. [2/n]
This is understandable as the commercial #internet is c. only 25 years and relevant #data can be scarce especially at a disaggregated #Regional level. [3/n]

🌎Le @hc_climat publie son rapport annuel sur le #climat et voici quelques enseignements (même si je conseille de lire au moins le résumé pour se faire une idée plus précise) ⤵️ (1/11)

📖Le rapport : hautconseilclimat.fr/publications/r…
📉 La baisse des émissions et TROP lente et insuffisante pour attendre la neutralité carbone. Elles n'ont baissé que de 0,9%, loin de 3% attendus en 2025. Les 4 grand secteurs ont raté leurs objectifs de baisse. (2/11) ImageImage
D'autant que les premières mesures de sortie de crise en France🇫🇷 ont été principalement tournées au nom de l’emploi vers les secteurs très émetteurs⛽️ de l’automobile et de l’aviation. (3/11)
