High resolution global climate modelling
The High Resolution Global Climate Modelling group both develops and analyses a hierarchy of model resolutions (ranging from 130km to 25km in the atmosphere, and 1 degree to ¼ degree in the ocean) based on the Met Office climate prediction model: HadGEM3 family configuration of the Unified Model

as a result of human-induced climate change (Oliver et al., 2018). This marine heatwave persisted for 298 days, the longest on record for this region, with an average intensity of 2°C (Iskandar et al., 2021). Precipitation has generally increased by around 0.2- 0.5mm/day per decade, although this trend

this? First, periods of slowing down and pauses in surface warming are not unusual in the instrumental temperature record. Second, climate model simulations suggest that we can expect such a period of a decade or more to occur at least twice per century, due to internal variability alone. Third

Record-breaking rainfall like that seen on 3 October 2020 could be 10 times more likely by 2100.
Europe, especially south-east France and north-west Italy. Head of the Met Office’s National Climate Information Centre, Mark McCarthy, said: “The record daily UK rainfall recorded on 3 October 2020 in the wake of Storm Alex was really quite extreme. The preceding drier conditions through September
