Advancing climate science together
Climate change is a complex subject and there are some genuine areas of uncertainty and scientific controversy, the Met Office works with other agencies to tackle and investigate some of the issues surrounding climate change and its science.
UK-Russia Climate Change Science Collaboration Project
A three-year programme, funded by the Foreign and Commonwealth Office, aiming to improve the UK and Russia’s understanding of climate change in both countries. Includes a research joint project between the Met Office and the State Hydrological Institute in Russia.
