• High-impact low-likelihood (HILL) climate scenarios for the UK

  Outputs from the high-impact low-likelihood (HILL) project within the UK Climate Resilience Programme

  Overview Climate change risk assessments in the UK are based on the UK Climate Projections 2018 (UKCP18), produced by the Met Office. These describe changes under different assumptions about future greenhouse gas emissions. Some applications, however, need ‘worst-case’ or ‘credible maximum

• Impact studies should include high-sensitivity climate models

  High-sensitivity climate models should not be excluded when projecting future regional climate impacts because the level of warming measured globally is not always the only good indicator of regional changes, a new study suggests.

  Some models which scientists use to project future changes in Earth's climate show faster global warming than others, leading to temperature projections that are considered unlikely. Some experts suggest that these more sensitive (or ‘hotter’) models should be omitted when studying future climate
