• State of the UK Climate

  Annual publication which provides an up-to-date assessment of the UK climate.

  The 2025 report is published as a special issue of the International Journal of Climatology, which is the Royal Meteorological Society journal of climate science and provides a review of the UK’s climate and significant meteorological events of the year. Latest report  State of the UK Climate 2025

• Climate webinar series

  Met Office climate science webinars

  In 2023 the Met Office ran a series of climate science webinars following on from a number of events ahead of COP27 in 2022.  Below you will find details of these past events including video recordings and written summaries. Details of upcoming events will be added below including registration

• Seasonal Climate Outlooks

  What is the Seasonal Climate Outlook? Following the El Nino event in 2015, the Met Office worked with the UK Government’s Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) and the University of Reading to design a new service which would provide insights into the upcoming season and enable more

• Climate change scientists

  Our climate change scientists

  Dr Tim Andrews Tim is a climate scientist working on forcing, feedbacks and heat uptake in the climate system. Dr Alejandro Bodas-Salcedo Alejandro works on developing and assessing the Met Office Hadley Centre's climate models. Dr Rob Chadwick Rob looks at changes in the global water cycle related

• Climate impacts scientists

  Our climate impacts scientists

  Dr Richard Betts Richard leads the climate impacts area, specialising in ecosystem-hydrology-climate interactions but also overseeing work on urban, health, industry and finance. Penny Boorman Penny is a climate scientist working on a framework to study uncertainties in dangerous climate impacts

• Upscaling Climate Services

  As part of the UK Climate Resilience (UKCR) programme, the Met Office has compiled an approach for upscaling climate services. This page introduces climate services providers to this resource.

  this means for climate services. We have reviewed existing upscaling literature and resources, and adapted themes and concepts from them to produce an upscaling approach for climate services. We have tested this in three case studies with different services and service providers. A toolkit, to aid

• The Climate Security team

  Providing advice on the impact of climate variability and change for security.

  Climate science has made huge progress in understanding the dynamics of climate variability and change over the last few decades, with climate models being a valuable tool for understanding the future climate. However, there remains a gap between the type of information climate projections provide

• AI in climate science

  Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) have demonstrated potential for their application in weather forecasting, the crossovers with climate science suggests that similar progress is possible in climate modelling.

  Climate models are numerical representations of the Earth system (including components such as the atmosphere, ocean and land) that are used to explore long-term changes to the underlying statistical distributions that govern day-to-day weather. Developments in climate models have typically come

• Seasonal and climate models

  Configurations of the Unified Model for seasonal, decadal and centennial climate predictions run at the Met Office.

  These are usually lower resolution than the models used for day to day weather forecasting, and include ocean and sea-ice components coupled to the atmosphere model in order to represent the full coupled climate system. Additional processes associated with atmospheric chemistry and the ecosystem
