Adaptive social protection aims to protect poor households from climate and other shocks before they occur and support them when they occur

• Boosting research at junction of climate science and AI

  The collaboration will drive new, cross-disciplinary research at the interface of data science, AI, climate science and weather forecasting. This important new alliance demonstrates the Institute’s continued commitment to tackling climate change and its impacts through data science and AI research

• New directors for national climate science partnership

  Leading UK climate science organisations are driving forwards a national alliance focused on climate solutions for society, led by new co-directors Professor Cath Senior and Professor Michael Meredith.

  The UK National Climate Science Partnership (UKNCSP) brings together Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) supported research centres, and the Met Office, to respond to threats posed by our rapidly changing climate. Professor Michael Meredith, an oceanographer from the British Antarctic

• New report on the state of global climate in 2019

  A major report on the state of the global climate for 2019 published today reveals further evidence of climate change.

  indicators and observations show that the global climate is continuing to change rapidly. “Global average temperature is perhaps the simplest climate indicator through which to view the changes taking place in our climate. 2019 was one of the top three warmest years in the historical record dating back

• Building resilience to a changing climate across the Commonwealth

  The Met Office is helping develop weather forecasting capability and specialist climate change services for Commonwealth countries following the announcement of two new projects aimed at improving weather and climate resilience.

  The Met Office has been at the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting (CHOGM) in London this week (16th - 20th) demonstrating our position as a global partner of choice for weather and climate services. Throughout the week, the Met Office has been showcasing our work across the Commonwealth

• Near-term climate prediction ‘coming of age’

  Bridging the gap between shorter-term seasonal forecasts and long-term climate projections has long been a dream of climate scientists.

  Now a review paper, published by a team of international climate scientists, and led by authors at the Met Office and the Lamont-Doherty Earth Institute, validates the capability for near-term climate predictions out to a few years ahead. These predictions are expected to become increasingly useful
