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

Global observations of surface and upper air temperature and humidity, surface pressure and precipitation are used to provide advice on global climate variability and change.

Temperature, precipitation and humidity and their extremes can have a major impact on our lives. Observational datasets are used to monitor land and atmospheric climate variables, to understand how the climate has changed over time and to examine the occurrence of extremes in temperature and heat

The Human dynamics of climate change poster studies the impacts of climate change in the context of present-day human dynamics

The impacts of climate change will not be experienced in isolation, but will affect humans in the context of the way we live. The 'Human dynamics of climate change' poster aims to illustrate some of the impacts of climate and population change in the context of a globalised world. You can download

Copyright 2020 Executive summary Background: UKCP Global (60 km) consisted of 28 realisations of climate variables for 1900-2100 as simulated by 28 coupled ocean-atmosphere climate models. The 28 realisations consisted of 15 variants of the HadGEM3-GC3.05 global climate model (GCM) developed at the Met

Climate risk report for the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region

The climate risk report for the MENA 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. The Climate Risk

Our climate, cryosphere and ocean scientists

Dr Lesley Allison Lesley works on understanding the ocean’s role in climate variability and change, with a focus on ocean heat content and sea level Dr Rosa Barciela Rosa leads the research and development of the operational marine ecosystems and sediment modelling systems Dr Mike Bell Mike

Projects in Africa Why Africa needs improved climate information Rapid population growth and development in Sub-Saharan Africa are increasing the region’s vulnerability to climate variability and change. Weather extremes have the capacity to impact on people’s lives, threatening infrastructure

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
