There may be a greater than 10% chance that the real-world response lies outside the 5th to 95th percentile range and this likelihood cannot be accurately quantified. We cannot rule out substantial additional sea level rise associated primarily with dynamic ice discharge

February. High pressure typically brings settled, dry weather, and while it’s not unusual to see such pressure systems in spring, their persistence this year has been more pronounced than usual. A key reason for this lies in the behaviour of the jet stream, a fast-flowing air current high in the atmosphere

having the potential to even reach 30% woodland cover. Chris believes there are benefits to planting trees wherever the opportunity lies. He said: “Planting or preserving large blocks of trees can have obvious benefits for the climate, the environment, people and wildlife. However, single or small

Africa’s success lies in its collaborative co-produced approach, bringing together a wide range of partners from regional to national and local levels. This ensures that the activities created are not only relevant but deeply rooted in the real-world needs of the communities WISER operates. With this new
