UKCP09 Key Findings

Key findings based on the probabilistic projections are presented at a national level (UK-wide) and for each of the 16 administrative regions. Projected changes for the 2020s, 2050s and 2080s are available under the high, medium and low emission scenarios and at 10, 50 and 90% probability levels for the following variables:

UK-wide:

• Mean winter and mean summer temperature
• Winter mean, and summer mean precipitation

Administrative regions:

• Mean winter and mean summer temperature
• Mean daily maximum and minimum summer temperature
• Annual mean, winter mean, and summer mean precipitation

• Key findings based on the projections of sea-level rise are also presented for London, Cardiff, Edinburgh and Belfast.
