The UK climate is monitored by analysing surface observations and placing recent extreme weather events in their historical context.
The National Climate Information Centre (NCIC) generates climate information and statistics using UK surface observations. Techniques are developed to generate long data series for the UK and its regions and to present data, e.g. as maps. Many of the outputs are made available on our UK climate
The UK Climate Resilience Programme (UKCR) ran from 2019 to 2023. It brought together multi-disciplinary climate research and expertise to ensure the UK is resilient to climate variability and change.
