Causes of changes to different aspects of the climate system are attributed to human and/or natural influences.

Observations contain information about how climate has varied. Climate models provide the facility to investigate the impact of different influences on climate, including both anthropogenic and natural factors, and to determine the level of variability that would still exist in the climate system

The aim of the product is to provide seasonal climate information, reviewing the last 3 months and looking forward 3-6 months, so that readers are informed of the climate variability affecting various countries.   The skill of long-range outlooks varies with the time of year and with location, due
