these deficiencies into account, skilful predictions of extreme European winter decades are possible.  Lead author Dr Doug Smith, who heads decadal climate prediction research and development at the Met Office Hadley Centre, said: “The message from this study is double-edged: climate is much more predictable

The National Partnership for Ocean Prediction comprises the Met Office, Plymouth Marine Laboratory, the Centre for Environment, Fisheries and Aquaculture Science and the National Oceanography Centre.

The partnership aims to: draw together world-class expertise from the UK's leading marine and oceanographic research centres; develop and promote the application of world-leading marine products and services to stakeholders, with a focus on national and public benefit. These aims will be achieved

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
