UKCP09 Climate Change Predictions to 2100

The latest UK climate projections (UKCP09) from 2009 provide predictions of climate variables including precipitation, temperature, wind speed and sea level rise under different greenhouse gas emission scenarios.

The most recent climate change predictions up to 2100 date from 2009 and have been estimated by the United Kingdom Climate Projections (UKCP 09). These predictions update and replace those of UKCIP 02 and UKCIP 98. They are based on anticipated change to climate variables such as precipitation, temperature, wind speed and sea level rise and take account of different scenarios concerning varying levels of greenhouse gas emissions over the period.
