• State of the UK Climate

  Annual publication which provides an up-to-date assessment of the UK climate.

  The 2025 report is published as a special issue of the International Journal of Climatology, which is the Royal Meteorological Society journal of climate science and provides a review of the UK’s climate and significant meteorological events of the year. Latest report  State of the UK Climate 2025

• The Climate Security team

  Providing advice on the impact of climate variability and change for security.

  Climate science has made huge progress in understanding the dynamics of climate variability and change over the last few decades, with climate models being a valuable tool for understanding the future climate. However, there remains a gap between the type of information climate projections provide

• Climate monitoring and attribution

  Developing observational data; monitoring and interpreting climate variations and change.

  Climate information and statistics, based on many types of surface, atmospheric and marine measurements, are produced on national to global scales. Climate models are used to attribute causes of past climate change that are seen within the observations. The datasets produced by our scientists are also used by other science areas. Scientific users throughout the world access the data and statistics via the HadObs website.

• Weather and climate consulting

  Find out about how we can help you manage the risks and realise the opportunities associated with day-to-day weather, extreme events and future climate conditions.

  The impact of extreme weather events are identified by global industry leaders as one of the most significant risks to their businesses (World Economic Forum – 2025 Global Risk Report). Our consultants work with you to understand how these weather and climate impacts affect your business

• Upscaling Climate Services

  As part of the UK Climate Resilience (UKCR) programme, the Met Office has compiled an approach for upscaling climate services. This page introduces climate services providers to this resource.

  this means for climate services. We have reviewed existing upscaling literature and resources, and adapted themes and concepts from them to produce an upscaling approach for climate services. We have tested this in three case studies with different services and service providers. A toolkit, to aid

• Climate sensitivity and feedbacks

  Understanding and quantifying the most important feedback processes operating in the climate system.

  An important aspect of this work is to use both models and observations to try to establish links between physical processes operating in past, present and future climates. This involves the development and refinement of diagnostics and metrics for assessing model performance, and for isolating

• Understanding climate change

  Quantifying and reducing uncertainty in climate change, through understanding and improving the representation of key processes.

  This area of research involves the design, building, evaluation and improvement of climate models informed by knowledge of the mechanisms of past, present and future climates. The scientific focus is on gaining understanding and improving the representation of key processes that are critical for climate variability and change on global and regional scales.
