% since the industrial revolution, this increase would have been almost twice as large if some CO2 had not been removed from the atmosphere through being absorbed by plants and the oceans. These natural sinks of carbon vary in strength from year to year due to short-term fluctuations in climate

Briefing note Severe or extreme weather in a changing climate We know our climate is changing. Sea levels are rising, air temperatures are going up, ice cover on land and sea is decreasing and rainfall patterns are changing. Scientists are studying all of these, and making projections

that there is an 80% chance that there will be 12 or less named storms. The climate model signal is associated with a predicted cooling trend in sea surface temperatures in the Pacific and tropical North Atlantic that influence storm activity. To assess the accuracy of the new system, similar forecasts have been run

to understand of how climate change influences the frequency and intensity of extreme weather. This information is regarded as critical to assessing and developing strategies for managing and mitigating the impacts of climate change on local communities (IPCC, 2012). Many climate change impact

would strongly influence Europe’s climate. The consequences of such changes for the world, Europe and the UK could be profound. Preparing for the worst impacts The paper makes several key points: Climate outcomes or events that have a high impact are a key component of climate risk, even

high-pressure ridge extending from East Siberia to the central Arctic, helping to blow warm air over much of the Arctic Ocean. As the season progressed, however, the high pressure weakened, allowing a larger influence from Arctic storms, and temperatures became progressively cooler. Overall, the summer
