and Analysis method 4.1 Domain Domain size selection has taken into consideration the topographic variation across the country and the large-scale features influencing the local weather and climate system in Ethiopia as discussed under section 1.2.1 and 1.2.2 above. As a result, the model’s domain made large

averaging period (1991-2020). Some online debate has suggested a cooler than average month dismisses the influence of climate change, though this is fundamentally not the case, as the UK’s variable climate will continue to have some cooler-than-average months.  Mike Kendon added: “Although July 2023

influences of risk perception to better understand the decision context for climate services. This will be implemented through a survey of climate change risk perceptions; in-country interviews in two case study countries; review of climate services available in WISER to assess alignment with the decision

(Matthes et al, 2017), which will be used internationally in future climate modelling studies (CMIP6), and an updated estimate of volcanic forcing. Three dominant factors are shown to be important in driving the most recent slowdown: a negative (cooling) phase of the IPO, reduced solar irradiance

Spring 2025 has broken historical climate records, marking an unprecedented season of warmth and sunshine across the UK, according to provisional Met Office statistics.

since the year 2000, and the three warmest springs have all occurred since 2017, a sign of our changing climate.   All four nations also recorded their highest spring mean temperature, with Northern Ireland and Scotland recording notably high temperatures, up 1.6°C on average .

over land. But these factors alone accounted for around half of the observed temperature anomaly of last summer, with a similar magnitude influence from climate change.

Climate change made a secondary contribution by increasing the moisture holding capacity of the atmosphere. The winter of 2013-14 will be remembered for many years for remarkably widespread and persistent flooding that affected many parts of England, including the low-lying Somerset moors

January 2020 - This article explores the weather and climate drivers that have contributed to the recent extreme heat and drought over Australia in the context of a changing climate.

and climate drivers that have contributed to the recent extreme heat and drought over Australia in the context of a changing climate. Influences on fire: ignition, fuel and weather conditions Fires depend on a combination of available fuel, fire weather conditions, and ignition. Vegetation provides

with results from 58 CMIP6 models in Figs. 8 and 9, and 64 in Fig. 10. Our assessment is limited to a simple “topdown” comparison of the intensity of variability in the relevant index values, preceded by a brief survey of current understanding of their properties and influences.
