Research led by the Met Office as part of the CSSP China project, has used a global Earth system model to investigate the impact of future changes in air pollutants on air quality and the climate.

weather with impacts varying depending on the time of year. These influences – acting on UK climate a long distance from their source – are  known as ‘teleconnections’ and are an intense area of ongoing scientific research including here at the Met Office.  El Niño Southern Oscillation – ENSO

and February. Sea ice extent was 30%, 18%, 9%, 8% and 7% below the 1981- 2010 average in these five months respectively. Winter in the Arctic is normally a time of rapidly growing sea ice extent. As the sun sets on the Arctic, temperatures drop quickly, allowing refreezing of open water exposed

A direct link between climate change and drought is complicated by the many meteorological, hydrological, geological, and societal drivers that combine to cause droughts. However, there is increasing evidence that climate change is influencing rainfall patterns in many regions around the world
