The dates of the world-famous cherry blossom in Kyoto have been shifted forward by climate change and urban development.

. Climate change contribution Observations show the average March temperature in Kyoto city centre has increased by several degrees since the pre-industrial period, under the influence of both climate change and urban warming. To identify the level at which human influence has impacted full-flowering dates

, but it will still be very warm and humid where the sun comes out in the south and west of the UK. “In contrast to the last few days, maximum daytime temperatures will be reducing, with only isolated locations seeing temperatures of 30.0°C or above. And some northern and easterns areas much less warm

Steven works on Climate Dynamics.

Current activities Steven is a senior research scientist within a group led by Nick Dunstone.  The group works to understand the mechanisms that drive regional climate variability in different parts of the globe.  Steven is currently carrying out research into the influence of the El Nino Southern

of background to the video sessions, alongside instructions on how to recreate some of the activities or ideas for extension activities. Every three weeks we will release three videos on topics relating to weather and climate. There will be pauses within these videos for discussion, experiments, activities

This page explains how we study extreme weather events, to see if climate change was a cause. These attribution studies help shape our understanding of climate change and its impacts.

gas emissions Sea surface temperature Topography Observations It’s important to understand these factors and how they influence a weather event. For example, natural climate variability and weather patterns are natural influences. Aerosols and greenhouse gases, though, are more affected by human

Unprecedented wildfires in Canada and parts of Amazonia last year were at least three times more likely due to climate change and contributed to high levels of CO2 emissions from burning globally.
