The paper, published in the Royal Met Society’s Meteorological Applications Journal, is thought to be the first of its kind studying the use of citizen observations and machine learning to enhance the accuracy of temperature forecasts at a hyper-local level. Supported by the University of Reading

The intention is for this model to contribute climate predictions for the next report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. Career background Tim joined the Met Office Hadley Centre in 2002. He graduated from the University of Cambridge in 2001, and completed an MSc in Weather and Climate modelling at the University of Reading in 2004.

and tropical cyclones. She has also carried out experiments to understand the mechanisms of the future changes in storms. She is the lead author of four publications in refereed journals on the impacts of increased greenhouse gases on mid-latitude storms and tropical cyclones. Prior to joining the Met Office, Ruth completed an MSc on Weather, Climate and Modelling at Reading University. She also has a BSc in Mathematics from Leeds University.
network was still being established. Things to bear in mind Whilst many diaries comprise observations taken with great care the sites were not official and therefore accuracy of readings can be affected by poorly positioned instruments and use of non-standard instruments which may not have been
