is because of the slow response time of some elements of the climate system, such as the oceans with their large thermal capacity. Climate simulations show that it can take several centuries for the climate system to reach equilibrium, all other external forcings remaining constant (e.g. volcanoes, Sun

REPORT 2024/25 At a glance Helping you make Observations Building our weather story from space. 22 million observations from more than 25 different satellites every day increases accuracy and resilience. Defence Sole provider of meteorological, oceanographic, space and climate data as a Specialist

for Emission Modelling). The estimates are presented as yearly averages and are compared to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) inventory. The atmospheric measurements and emission estimates of greenhouse gases provide an important cross-check for the emissions inventories

often asked about climate change is whether the changes we are seeing in the earth’s climate are due to human influence such as greenhouse gas emissions, or if they can be explained by natural causes such as changes in solar activity or volcanic eruptions.
