Commonwealth Climate Services demonstrator
The Commonwealth Climate Services Demonstrator is a trial project that is pulling through existing Met Office capability to have additional benefit to Commonwealth nations. At the Commonwealth Heads of Government (CHOGM) meeting in London in April 2018, the UK universities Minister announced
Global Climate Observing System The Global Climate Observing System (GCOS) is intended to be a long-term, user-driven operational system capable of providing the comprehensive observations required for monitoring the climate syst
GCOS is vital for: detecting and attributing climate change; assessing the impacts of climate variability and change; supporting research toward improved understanding, modelling and prediction of the climate system. It addresses the total climate system including physical, chemical and biological
How are the countries selected for the Climate Outlook? The selection of regions and countries for the Climate Outlooks are based on the specification provided by the UK Government's Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO), as the primary user and stakeholder of this service. Whilst

Met Office State of the UK Climate report shows 2016 the 13th warmest year.
, said: “Although 2016 may not be regarded as remarkable for temperature, it does feature within a notable decade for temperature records. The trend towards warmer temperatures is clear, but of course natural variation in our climate will always mean that increases are not always even year on year

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

Confidence in climate attribution analysis relies on high quality observational records, climate models’ abilities to simulate a particular type of event, and scientific understanding of how natural variability and climate change may influence
