Monitoring changes in UK temperature Multiple sources of data agree on long-term observed trends

Monitoring changes in UK temperature

To (almost) no-one’s surprise, multiple sources of data agree on the long-term trends in UK temperatures.

Evaluating seasonal forecast improvements over the past two decades We have analysed the performance of operational seasonal forecasting models since their inception. Clear improvements are measured through the different model eras, particularly in the Tropics. For t....

Are you interested in seasonal forecasts and how they have advanced over the past two decades?

Summer 2025 was the UK's hottest on record

This year's average summer temperature of 16.1C was made around 70 times more likely because of climate change, the @metoffice.gov.uk has found

East Asia: What is the link between air pollution and global warming? - NCAS Recent efforts to reduce air pollution in East Asia may have inadvertently contributed to a noticeable acceleration in global warming since 2010

Clean air, warmer planet? New study co-authored by NCAS's Laura Wilcox shows East Asia’s air pollution clean-up may have lifted a “cooling mask,” revealing more GHG warming.

A reminder that we must cut emissions and pollution - for climate and health.

Water Density Shifts Can Drive Rapid Changes in AMOC Strength - Eos High-latitude variations in density, which appear to be driven by changes in atmospheric pressure, can propagate to midlatitudes and affect the current’s strength within just a year.

Do changes in AMOC strength at northern latitudes affect the current’s strength farther south? @jonrobson.bsky.social & colleagues investigate in new #AGUPubs research.

One of our motivations for writing this was a prevalent misconception that blocking systems are becoming more common.

They aren’t. They’re projected to become less frequent.

However, the hot and dry spring is consistent with climate change.

RealClimate: The AMOC is slowing, it’s stable, it’s slowing, no, yes, … RealClimate: There's been a bit of media whiplash on the issue of AMOC slowing lately - ranging from the AMOC being "on the brink of collapse" to it being "more stable than previously thought". AMOC, of course, refers to the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation, one of the worlds major ocean circulation systems which keeps the northern

Here's my thoughts on the latest round of discussion about the slowing of the Atlantic overturning circulation. It's a bit nerdy - but the short summary is: in my view the balance of evidence strongly suggests that the #AMOC has slowed since the late 19th C. 🌊

Atlantic overturning inferred from air-sea heat fluxes indicates no decline since the 1960s - Nature Communications The AMOC is crucial for the global ocean overturning circulation and controls the climate around the North Atlantic.

Has the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) weakened over the last decades? In our new study, we combine state-of-the-art CMIP6 models and observation-based estimates of the air-sea heat flux in the North Atlantic to show that the AMOC has not declined since the 1960s! 🌊
