• Landmark report stresses urgency of climate crisis

  Time is short to avert the worst impacts of climate change, but the report also reminds us there is no scientific reason to delay action.

  : “This report paints the starkest picture yet of the global and regional impacts of climate change. Time is short to avert the worst impacts of climate change, but the report also reminds us there is no scientific reason to delay action. The case is clear. More focussed projections of future climate change

• July 2019: a month in UK climate statistics

  July 2019 saw the highest temperature ever recorded in the UK, but the month wasn’t all about heat – rainfall is a significant talking point too, particularly across parts of northern England.

  on from a largely wet June, northern England and the Midlands have now received more than the season’s usual rainfall, with August still to go. Tim Legg, of the Met Office’s National Climate Information Centre, said: “With an all-time temperature record it would be easy to assume that this summer

• 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

• Heat in cities – the health impacts of a changing climate

  exceeded 40°C for the first time. This was a milestone in UK climate history, which was complemented by the first ever red severe weather warning for heat issued by the Met Office. Some areas of southern England recorded their highest ever temperatures by extraordinary margins of 3-4°C. A Met Office

• Climate change drives increase in storm rainfall

  A new study has found climate change has influenced how much rain falls during autumn and winter storms.

  Human-induced climate change made the heavy storm downpours and total rainfall across the UK and Ireland between October 2023 and March 2024 more frequent and intense, according to a rapid attribution analysis by an international team of leading climate scientists. The 2023-24 storm season has been

• Climate Science for Service Partnership (CSSP) Brazil

  The Climate Science for Service Partnership (CSSP) Brazil is a collaborative climate science initiative between research institutes in the UK and Brazil.

  What is the Climate Science for Service Partnership (CSSP) Brazil? Launched in 2016, the Climate Science for Service Partnership (CSSP) Brazil is a research project that aims to build strong partnerships between research institutes in the UK and Brazil.  CSSP Brazil produces collaborative science

• UK researchers join forces for climate solutions

  The UK’s leading climate science organisations are joining forces to develop a new national alliance focused on climate solutions for society.

  Seven Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) supported centres and the Met Office will work together as the new UK National Climate Science Partnership (UKNCSP) to respond to threats posed by a rapidly changing climate by putting climate science at the forefront of the solutions agenda

• Rainfall across Europe disrupted by climate change

  of Climate, also found that increasing greenhouse gas emissions are associated with increases in extreme rainfall events. As our atmosphere warms due to human induced climate change, it can hold more moisture. For every 1°C of warming the atmosphere can hold between 6-7% more moisture. This has
