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

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

now. Recordings of weather variables are made 24 hours a day across the globe. These are passed to the world's major weather forecasting centres and used in conjunction with satellite pictures to get a picture of what the atmosphere is doing now. These are called observations.  The weather forecasting
