FCDO*-funded Met Office report provides up-to-date analysis of climate trends, projections and impacts for Ukraine

Ahead of the COP26 negotiations, which were hosted by the UK in November 2021, the British Embassy in Ukraine requested the Met Office to conduct a study on climate change impacts in Ukraine.  The 11 month project, from April 2021 to February 2022, aimed to provide the British Embassy Kyiv

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
