The Centre has several major aims:

  • To understand physical, chemical and biological processes within the climate system and develop state-of-the-art climate models which represent them
  • To use climate models to simulate global and regional climate variability and change over the last 100 years and to predict changes over the next 100 years
  • To monitor global and national climate variability and change
  • To attribute recent changes in climate to specific factors
  • To understand, with the aim of predicting, the natural inter-annual to decadal variability of climate
