Confidence in climate attribution analysis relies on high quality observational records, climate models’ abilities to simulate a particular type of event, and scientific understanding of how natural variability and climate change may influence
with the previous generation, although they simulate global patterns of climate and climate change with greater fidelity. Despite the recent pause in the global mean surface temperature rise, the upper ranges of TCR and ECS derived from extended observational records, and specifically including

Met Office State of the UK Climate report shows 2016 the 13th warmest year.
, said: “Although 2016 may not be regarded as remarkable for temperature, it does feature within a notable decade for temperature records. The trend towards warmer temperatures is clear, but of course natural variation in our climate will always mean that increases are not always even year on year
Our climate monitoring and attribution scientists
Nick Rayner Nick leads the Climate Monitoring and Attribution team. She is an expert in the development of observed climate data sets. Dr Peter Stott Peter is a Science Fellow in the attribution of climate change to anthropogenic and natural causes. Dr Chris Atkinson Chris works on the development
The Human dynamics of climate change poster studies the impacts of climate change in the context of present-day human dynamics
The impacts of climate change will not be experienced in isolation, but will affect humans in the context of the way we live. The 'Human dynamics of climate change' poster aims to illustrate some of the impacts of climate and population change in the context of a globalised world. You can download
Arctic sea ice is a sensitive indicator of climate change and changes to the sea ice cover can have potential implications for the Arctic region and beyond.
