Early warning is a major element of disaster risk reduction. It prevents loss of life and reduces the economic and material impact of disasters. Effective early warning systems need a people-centred approach tailored to local conditions and involving a wide range of stakeholders. This is detailed

HadCM2 was the first Met Office Hadley Centre coupled model developed under the Unified Modelling system.

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

Data about our weather is collected all over the world – in our skies, across land and in our oceans. From these data, the Met Office and other research centres
