• 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

• World’s oceans capturing unrelenting climate change

  The world’s oceans are charting the unrelenting progress of climate change says a new global report: The State of the Climate in 2021.

  The 32nd annual State of the Climate report – published today by the Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society – shows that two marine-related measures – ocean heat content and global sea level rise – were the highest on record last year. Scientists measure climate change by a number

  ASPIRE – Adaptive Social Protection - Information for Enhanced Resilience Overview • ASPIRE will integrate climate information into social protection decision making in the Sahel so that it can become responsive to climate shocks. For example, increasing regular cash payments to vulnerable

• HadGEM1: Met Office climate prediction model

  HadGEM1 is the first in a new generation of coupled climate models incorporating a non-hydrostatic, fully compressible, deep atmosphere formulation with a semi-implicit semi-Lagrangian time integration scheme.

  Note that the most recent HadGEM model is the HadGEM3 HadGEM1 stands for the Hadley Centre Global Environment Model version 1. It was developed in 2006 and used in the Fourth Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. The atmospheric component has 38 levels extending

• Climate change increases global burnt area

  A new international study has revealed climate change is contributing to an increase in wildfires worldwide, despite human interventions trying to temper this trend.

  The study - led by a team of scientists from the Met Office and Vrije Universiteit Brussel (VUB)  -compares wildfire models with and without the effects of climate change. It shows that in many regions the frequency and intensity of wildfires is increasing, especially in sensitive ecosystems
