• Joint Weather and Climate Research Programme (JWCRP)

  JWCRP aims to further the interests of the Met Office and NERC in growing the UK's leading role in weather and climate research.

  JWCRP facilitates the joint research between the Met Office and Natural Environment Research Council (NERC). Its overarching goal is to ensure that the UK maintains and strengthens its leading international position in weather and climate science. The JWCRP has two major elements. The first

• Weather and Climate Science for Service Partnership Programme

  The Weather and Climate Science for Service Partnership (WCSSP) programme is harnessing science to address the impacts of extreme weather and climate change.

  The WCSSP programme comprises a network of international partnerships to strengthen the resilience of vulnerable communities to weather and climate variability.   It is funded through the UK government’s International Science Partnerships Fund (ISPF), with the Met Office serving as a delivery

• Food, Farming and Natural Environment Climate Service

  Met Office science is helping UK farmers and the wider food chain prepare for a changing climate. This work includes a number of ‘Climate Services’ which are funded by Defra (Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs).

  UK agriculture, food and climate adaptation  The UK Climate Projections (UKCP) show us that the UK is likely to experience ‘hotter, drier summers and warmer, wetter winters’, as well as an increase in extreme weather events such as heavy rainfall, periods of drought and heatwaves. These changing

• HadCM2: Met Office climate prediction model

  Note that the most recent HadCM model is the HadCM3 HadCM2 stands for the Hadley Centre Coupled Model version 2. It was developed in 1995 and used in the Second Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. The atmospheric component has 19 levels with a horizontal resolution

• HadCM3: Met Office climate prediction model

  HadCM3 is a coupled climate model that has been used extensively for climate prediction, detection and attribution, and other climate sensitivity studies.

  HadCM3 stands for the Hadley Centre Coupled Model version 3. It was developed in 1999 and was the first unified model climate configuration not to require flux adjustments (artificial adjustments applied to climate model simulations to prevent them drifting into unrealistic climate states). HadCM3

• Understanding one of Europe's biggest climate drivers

  A new Met Office-led study – reviewing evidence from previous scientific papers and climate models – reveals natural patterns of weakening and strengthening of ocean currents which influence the UK’s weather and climate.

  In the North Atlantic lies one of the world’s largest climate mechanisms: a system of currents transporting relatively warm water from the tropics to the poles, with return currents at depth transporting colder, denser water further south. The transport of heat to the North Atlantic keeps the UK’s
