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

Climate science involves the development of climate datasets based on observations; the use of these datasets in climate change monitoring and attribution and the use of Earth System Models to make future predictions from months to centuries into the future.   Most recent Hadley Centre Technical

, calculate the global surface temperature each month, and each year too. Global surface temperature records are needed to give us the big picture about how our climate is changing. Explain that they are going to have a look at real-life data to learn more about climate change 20 minutes Groupwork

and Africa leading to the season’s highest temperature of 18.4 °C at Santon Downham (Suffolk) on 24 February. Dr Mark McCarthy is the head of the Met Office National Climate Information Centre. He said: “February 2021 has seen a wide temperature range resulting from the two predominant weather patterns

The UK Climate Resilience Programme (UKCR) ran from 2019 to 2023. It brought together multi-disciplinary climate research and expertise to ensure the UK is resilient to climate variability and change.

Under the Strategic Priorities Fund, the UK Climate Resilience Programme was led by the Met Office and Natural Environment Research Council (NERC), in partnership with the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC), the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC), the Department

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

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

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.

and/or observational records, and so cannot take into account changes in feedbacks and processes in the climate system as the ice cover declines. Therefore climate models remain our most robust tool for investigating future change. References Vaughan, D.G., et. al 2013: Observations: Cryosphere
