World-leading climate science at the Met Office
Met Office Hadley Centre for Climate Science and Services The Met Office, particularly through the Met Office Hadley Centre for Climate Science and Services, is constantly expanding the observations and monitoring of past and current climatic conditions, and making advances in projecting future
Categorising the world’s climate into zones helps us understand the conditions in different regions and track how they change.
What are climate zones? Climate zones are areas with distinct climates. These zones might correspond to weather patterns, latitude, or communities of plants and animals. There are many climate classification systems, which define zones based on different climatic factors or combinations of factors
Indicators of change: latest observations of global and UK climate
The Met Office Hadley Centre is one of a number of leading research centres around the world which monitors changes in the climate. Click on the links below for up to date information about global surface temperature, the state of our Arctic and Antarctic sea ice, trends in greenhouse gas and ozone
Our climate is changing. These resources can be used to discover more about the causes and impacts of climate change, and explore what can be done to help
From getting to grips with the data to exploring the impacts of climate change to debating some of the big questions we're facing as individuals and communities, our resources can help you discover more about our changing climate.

This attribution study is supplemented with a qualitative assessment of projected September mean temperature over the UK using the UK Climate Projections (UKCP; Murphy et al., 2018), which provides a guide to expected future changes in September UK temperature.

), setting a new UK and England temperature record by a margin of 1.6°C, and multiple stations across England also exceeded 40°C. This heatwave marked a milestone in UK climate history, with 40°C being recorded for the first time in the UK. The extent of the heatwave was remarkable with temperatures of 39°C
of Climate Variability and change over Africa by using Machine Learning as a tool for Data Rescue The observational record of weather and climate is severely limited – there are many times and places where we have few or no observations, and these limitations restrict both science and predictions
World Meteorological Organization report reveals the state of the climate in 2020.
The State of the Global Climate 2020 highlights the latest indicators of the climate system, including greenhouse gas concentrations, increasing land and ocean temperatures, sea level rise, melting ice and glacier retreat and extreme weather. The WMO report, which included contributions from
