• How to avoid the impact of climate change

  Providing policy-relevant evidence and research on avoiding dangerous climate change and its impacts.

  It is critical that mitigation and adaptation policy are underpinned by strong scientific evidence. The Climate Change Mitigation Advice team carries out original underpinning research on aspects of dangerous climate change, including Amazon dieback, the cryosphere, and marine impacts. Our primary

  The climate risk report for the West Africa region is part of a series of regional climate risk reports the Met Office has produced in collaboration with ODI and commissioned by FCDO to provide evidence to the UK Government in support of adaptation and resilience planning and investments

• Research into climate impacts on water resources

  Understanding climate impacts on water resources at both the regional and global scale.

  We use climate models, in conjunction with impact models, to make integrated assessments on the effects of climate change and climate variability on water resources. By including important processes such as glaciers, irrigation and interactions with Food, forestry and ecosystem services, we aim

• Climate Adaptation to Risks and for Opportunities in Tanzania

  The Met Office are working in partnership with the Tanzania Meteorological Agency (TMA) on a capacity development project, known as CAROT – Climate Adaptation to Risks and for Opportunities in Tanzania. CAROT is part of the AIM4Resilience (Assisting Institutions and Markets for Resilience

• Increased climate change risk to permafrost

  A new international research study, including climate change experts from the University of Leeds, University of Exeter and the Met Office, reveals that permafrost is more sensitive to the effects of global warming than previously thought. The study, published today in Nature Climate Change

• Climate monitoring of the oceans and sea-ice

  Observations of ocean temperature, both at and below the surface; salinity, and sea-ice cover are used to provide advice on global climate variability and change.

  The oceans have a crucial role in the climate system owing to their ability to store and transport heat and to impart moisture and heat to the atmosphere. The temperature of the oceans and the amount of sea-ice are, therefore, important indicators of changes to the climate system. Observations
