Climate change increases the risk of wildfires

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

Understanding interactions between climate and nature

November 2024 - Novel research projects joining expertise at Met Office and The Wildlife Trusts sow the seeds for further research on climate and nature.

There are strong relationships between climate and the natural world. Habitats and wildlife often suffer as a result of climate changes, but they are also a key part of the solution, helping us to build resilience to current and future change.   The UK is one of the most nature depleted countries

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

Attributing extreme weather to climate change

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

How to avoid the impact of climate change

Providing policy-relevant evidence and research on avoiding dangerous climate change and its impacts.

It is critical that mitigation and adaptation policy are underpinned by strong scientific evidence. The Climate Change Mitigation Advice team carries out original underpinning research on aspects of dangerous climate change, including Amazon dieback, the cryosphere, and marine impacts. Our primary
