records. The latest edition of the State of the UK Climate report [published on Monday 14 July 2025] showed the flowering of hazel trees has advanced significantly over the period from 1999-2024. Looking at the information collated by the Woodland Trust from data submitted to the Nature’s Calendar

Learn about the climate drivers that influence seasonal forecasts and the impacts they can have on UK and global weather.

Seasonal forecasts rely on aspects of the global weather and climate system that are predictable. These are known as climate drivers and include tropical sea-surface temperatures and pressure patterns over the North Atlantic. The predictable effects of climate drivers act alongside inherently

Climate change will have an increasing impact on our lives, including the sport we love to watch.

already seen aspects such as extreme heat, and the worse is yet to come. “The UK has not recorded temperatures of more than 38.7 °C. However, our climate projections show temperatures of 40.0 °C or more are possible at Wimbledon even during future tournaments, posing considerable challenges

The UK’s leading climate science organisations are joining forces to develop a new national alliance focused on climate solutions for society.

Feedback: We're inviting feedback on the UKNCSP Strategy. Please see the web form for more details.  Aim of the partnership:  Investment in science and computing has made the UK a world leader in climate change research, but as we see from recent extreme weather events worldwide, understanding

Leadership and services to climate science recognised in New Year Honours for Met Office Science Fellow

Richard Jones, who is a Met Office Science Fellow, and a visiting Professor at the University of Oxford has been working in climate science for thirty-two years, and has been a prominent author for the IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) across its last four assessment reports

Rapid Response Review shows human-induced climate change promotes the conditions on which wildfires depend, increasing their likelihood.

Assessment Report in 2013. All the studies show links between climate change and increased frequency or severity of fire weather - periods with a high fire risk due to a combination of high temperatures, low humidity, low rainfall and often high winds - though some note anomalies in a few regions

Exploring climate impacts Age range: 7-11 Exploring climate impacts | Weather and climate stories Introduction Overview This lesson explores climate change and its impacts around the world. Your pupils will step into the shoes of people in other countries, finding out about their ways of life

This page explains how we study extreme weather events, to see if climate change was a cause. These attribution studies help shape our understanding of climate change and its impacts.

effect climate change had on an event. This might include many variables, like temperature and rainfall. An attribution case study: The European heatwave in 2019 In July 2019, we saw record breaking temperatures across the UK and Western Europe. In Cambridge, we saw a temperature of 38.7°C
