Our changing weather patterns: a tale of abrupt transitions

between different and contrasting phases lasting for a while before the next phase in the sequence begins to dominate. Let’s look at January’s conditions: the average across the month isn’t headline grabbing. But the pattern back-and-forth between weather types is remarkable.  The year began warm

: Science Report, (Murphy et al, 2018). For RCP8.5, it is clear that the PPE-15 models tend to sample the warmer end of the future response range projected by the probabilistic approach and CMIP5-13 models sample the mid-range and colder end – with some limited overlap in the middle. This is consistent

are likely. This in turn improves safety for those working in the oil and gas industry. The other focus of Jonathan's work is to improve the warm-rain, mixed-phase and ice microphysical processes within the Unified Model. To carry out these tasks, Jonathan uses recently published research, results

Ground-breaking research in the Amazon announced

at the University of Exeter said: “AmazonFACE will help us meet the COP26 goals by giving scientists crucial information on how fast carbon dioxide would be removed from the air by the Amazon forest in future. This is critical for calculating the carbon budget for limiting global warming to 1.5°C. We

Lessons and legacy of the Great Storm of 1987

developed over the Bay of Biscay to the south. Particularly warm tropical air and very cold polar air collided, forcing warm air to rise creating an area of low pressure. A big difference in temperature between the warm and cold air helped to cause a rapid ascent and a particularly low pressure system

Urgent action needed to mitigate climate change and preserve global forests

impacts on forests when global temperatures breach a global warming level of 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels: a global warming level evens out natural variation, when some years have marginally higher temperatures than others. The world is currently at a global warming level of 1.3°C, with obvious
