climate projections for informing our scientifically based climate change risk assessment toolkit across a range of major infrastructure projects in the UK, from flood defences, power systems roads, rail and water supply and treatment, for example Crossrail 2. I have been constructing and applying

2 . What have we seen? Observations of global sea level rise show an acceleration over the 20 th Century. The annual rate of rise over from 1993-2010 was about 3mm a year, considerably more than the rate for the preceding century 3 . Over the past century, global sea level has risen by about 20 cm

are defined for limited-area models, a kilometre-scale domain and a hectometre-scale domain. The kilometre-scale domain is: 67W to 37W, 0N to 27N. The hectometre-scale domain is: 59.5W to 55.5W, 12N to 15N. 2. Model resolutions The idea is to run limited-area models on the kilometre-scale domain

used in the IPCC’s 5 th Assessment report. It represents a mitigation scenario aiming to limit the increase of global mean temperature to around 2°C above preindustrial levels for mid-range climate sensitivity. Further details can be found in the guidance on Representative Concentration Pathways. 2

Note that the most recent HadCM model is the HadCM3 HadCM2 stands for the Hadley Centre Coupled Model version 2. It was developed in 1995 and used in the Second Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. The atmospheric component has 19 levels with a horizontal resolution

could reduce CO2 emissions by an additional 10-15,000 tonnes per year based on pre-COVID 19 air traffic levels(2). This equates to the same amount of emissions produced by 31 million miles driven in an average passenger vehicle, or in other words by driving to the moon and back 64 times(1). If all
