Dr Peter Stott Peter is a Science Fellow in the attribution of climate change to anthropogenic and natural causes. Dr Chris Atkinson Chris works on the development

• Climate monitoring with a UK focus

  The UK climate is monitored by analysing surface observations and placing recent extreme weather events in their historical context.

  The National Climate Information Centre (NCIC) generates climate information and statistics using UK surface observations. Techniques are developed to generate long data series for the UK and its regions and to present data, e.g. as maps. Many of the outputs are made available on our UK climate

• Food insecurity and climate change

  Find out how climate action could shape future vulnerability to food insecurity using a new interactive website

  Experts from the World Food Programme have worked in collaboration with Met Office climate scientists to devise a measurement of food vulnerability to climate change. The Food Insecurity and Climate Change index is a measure of how vulnerable to disruption a country's food security system

• Sea ice in the climate system

  Arctic sea ice is a sensitive indicator of climate change and changes to the sea ice cover can have potential implications for the Arctic region and beyond.

  Found in both the Arctic and Antarctic, sea ice regulates heat exchange between the ocean and atmosphere, supports polar ecosystems, and serves as a sensitive indicator of climate change. Sea ice forms in high-latitude regions where winter darkness and cold temperatures allow the ocean to freeze

• UK Climate Resilience Programme

  The Met Office co-led the UK Climate Resilience Programme (UKCR) from 2019 to 2023.

  From 2019 to 2023, the UK Climate Resilience Programme united multi-disciplinary research to enhance the UK's resilience to climate variability and change. Under the Strategic Priorities Fund, the programme was led by the Met Office and Natural Environment Research Council (NERC), in partnership

• UK Climate Projections (UKCP18)

  The UK Climate Projections (UKCP18) provides a comprehensive set of climate model projections for the UK, showing how the climate is likely to change in the future.

  Why are the UKCP18 webpages different? Please note we recently revised our UK Climate Projections (UKCP18) webpages. This includes an updated UKCP18 guidance and reports page, as well as various changes to other pages. You can find links to other UKCP18 pages at the bottom of this page. Please
