currently used by the Met Office and several other large operational centres. This formulation is very expensive computationally and it is necessary to see whether its use will still be justified on future supercomputers with more parallel architecture. Mike is also taking a lead in making fuller use

institutions and risks to future funding. � Rob Varley (Chief Executive) delivered his report and the Board noted a number of points, including signed multi-year agreements for the Public Weather Service (PWS) and Flood Forecasting Centre (FFC); a number of international Memoranda of Understanding

A new study by scientists in the Met Office Hadley Centre has found that days with extreme rainfall accumulations will become more frequent through the century. The research used the record rainfall observed on 3 October 2020 as an example and found that while in a natural environment

Prof Adam Scaife, of the Met Office Hadley Centre, said: “Signs of this event appeared in forecasts from late January and in the last few days we have seen a dramatic rise in air temperature, known as a Sudden Stratospheric Warming, at around 30km above the North Pole. This warming results from

to the Earth System Grid Federation (ESGF) via our partners at the Centre for Environmental Data Analysis (CEDA) allowing scientists around the world to analyse and exploit our climate simulations and contribute to activities, such as the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) reports

Centre, Eleanor worked at the Department of Hydrology and Water Resources at the University of Arizona in the USA. During this time she carried out research into the utility of remotely sensed data in modelling of land surface processes. Before moving to the USA, she spent 2 years at CEH Wallingford

to understand the time-scales involved in the build-up of the model biases, by analysing the evolution of the errors in five-day forecasts to seasonal and decadal climate predictions. Career background Richard joined the Met Office Hadley Centre in 2008. Before that, Richard was a post-doctoral

The purpose of the group is to develop scientific capability to detect the signature of climate change and attribute to the cause.   Career background Mark joined the Met Office Hadley Centre in 1999, where he spent the first 7 years years of his career working in the Climate
