Centre in August 1993, after studying Maths at Cambridge University. David spent the first nine years working on detection and attribution of anthropogenic climate change. This period culminated in a PhD in 2001 on experimental design and statistical modelling of climate model experiments, done

and subsequently the Copernicus Marine Service. He took up his current post in the newly created Coupled Data Assimilation team in 2018. Prior to joining the Met Office, Chris completed a PhD in theoretical particle physics at the Department of Physics in the University of Cambridge, where he had also

to joining the Met Office Hadley Centre, she worked on tropospheric chemistry modelling as a post-doctoral research associate at Cambridge University. Before that, she did a PhD at the University of Wales, Aberystwyth using observations and modelling to study stratospheric dynamics. Fiona also has a first class honours degree in Experimental Physics and an MSc in Environmental Chemistry from the National University of Ireland, Galway and Cork, respectively.

this and all the weather details in the week ahead forecast 👇 pic.twitter.com/3q7ovcxAsq — Met Office (@metoffice) August 12, 2024 Monday provisionally saw the highest temperature of the year so far, with 34.8°C reached in Cambridge. This is the highest temperature recorded in the UK since 13 August 2022

. To develop and improve NAME. Current projects MPI parallelisation of NAME. Improvements to the representation of effects of urban environments on dispersing plumes within NAME. Modelling of volcanic umbrella clouds within NAME. Ongoing validation of NAME against tracer experiments. Scientific collaboration and developments with a number of UK universities (e.g. Reading, Imperial College, Cambridge). Research on concentration fluctuations and buoyancy-driven flows.

of uncertainty infographic (PDF document) UK socioeconomic scenarios for climate research and policy This project developed shared socioeconomic pathways (SSPs) for the UK, to help answer key questions about the country’s resilience to climate change.

at Queens' College, Cambridge University. He was fortunate enough to then undertake a PhD, supervised jointly by Dr Paul Mason of the Met Office and Dr Alan Ibbetson of Reading University. The topic of his PhD was turbulent flow over three-dimensional hills, and the numerical model he developed

and use of probabilistic dispersion forecasts. This involves quantifying the source, meteorological and impact uncertainties. Scientific collaboration and developments with a number of agencies (e.g. Public Health England) and UK universities (e.g., Reading, Bristol, Leeds and Cambridge). We are partners in the EUROVOLC project which aims to promote an integrated and harmonized European volcanological community.
