Climate science will need to continue to be at the heart of policy to mitigate and adapt to climate change, says the Met Office as it announces a new scientific programme.
With the UK hosting the COP26 climate conference in Glasgow at the end of the year, the Met Office is launching a new climate science programme to address some of the key scientific challenges to inform the international climate gathering and beyond. Albert Klein Tank is the director of the Met
. In addition to the main site, three outlying screens were erected to help record the micro-climate of the area during the Antarctic winter. Further to these base observations, still more were made on the ‘‘sledging’’ journeys away from base to either explore specific geographic areas or when in depots
when: “The colour of the new green leaves is just visible between the scales of the swollen or elongated bud” (https://www. woodlandtrust.org.uk/visiting-woods/natures-calendar/). Phenological records, when combined with climate observations, provide long-term indicators of how plants and animals

Deeper discovery Interpreting climate models 1 2 3 If your group is new to climate change, introduce the concept. Explain that climate change is the long-term shift in average weather patterns across the world. Since the mid-1800s, humans have contributed to the release of carbon dioxide and other
Find out about how we can help you manage the risks and realise the opportunities associated with day-to-day weather, extreme events and future climate conditions.
Weather and climate related impacts are identified by global industry leaders as the most significant risks to their businesses (World Economic Forum – 2018 Global Risk Report). Our consultants work with you to understand how these weather and climate impacts affect your business or industry
The Hunger and Climate Vulnerability Index aims to paint a regional picture of how much climate change may affect life across the planet
Experts from the World Food Programme (WFP) have worked closely with our climate scientists to devise a measurement of vulnerability to climate change. Taking its definition from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), 'vulnerability' describes the relative degrees of climate stress
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 modelling at the Met Office
As faster supercomputers with more processing power are developed, harnessing this power and speed for the benefit of improving climate projections is the dream of climate scientists. The reality is there will never be enough speed or capability to infinitely improve climate models in all aspects
