The latest supercomputing technology will unleash the full potential of weather and climate data for the UK

Up to £1.2 billion investment has been confirmed for a state-of-the-art supercomputer to improve severe weather and climate forecasting, Data from the supercomputer will be used to inform Government policy as part of leading the global fight against climate change and meeting net zero emission

The Tea-CUP project is changing how climate services are delivered by developing actionable information to address the challenges of climate change within the tea industry, informing adaptation measures and decision-making.

, and climate change is posing significant challenges to the tea industry in China, the UK and beyond. In the Tea-CUP project (Co-developing Useful Predictions) scientists from the Met Office and China have been working with tea experts and local farmers in Yunnan Province to understand what seasonal

2024 was the warmest year on record globally and the first year that was likely more than 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels: a stark reminder global temperatures are continuing to rise.

exceeded the previous warmest year – 2016 - by 0.17°C, making 2024 and 2023 the warmest and second-warmest years on record.   A number of global climate centres will be releasing their 2024 average temperature figures today.  The latest figures highlight how the world is getting closer to breaching

Accessing UKCP Data: User Interface Observations UKCP18 includes a comprehensive set of observations of weather and climate covering the UK, with some records extending back over 150 years. Examining observations enables us to place the model simulated climate into context. Read More. Accessing UKCP

to lack of reliable observation records (Fallah et al., 2023). Central Asian countries such as Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan have very complex topography which requires high resolution climate data (~30km) for regional trend attribution studies (Fallah et 16 al., 2023). Central Asian trend attribution
