As we prepare for the Arctic Circle #Assembly2025 we're highlighting NOC's Arctic work.
🌡️ The Arctic may be ice-free in summer by 2050, with global impacts. 🌍
Projects like CANARI focus on how this affects extreme weather and the UK. 🇬🇧🌦️
More on our Arctic projects here:
noc.ac.uk/science/arct...
This is based on the last IPCC report (projections from models), It doesn't take into account that the Arctic may be warming faster due to the fact that we have cleaned up the aerosols in the air. A recent study suggested the first ice free *day* may be as early as 2027, an ice free month by 2030.

Low water levels at Pontsticill reservoir, south Wales, in July 2025.
Graph showing unprecedented low summer rainfall found in one example realisation of the ECMWF hindcast archive (in red) compared to observed summer rainfall (in black). The light grey shading indicates the highest and lowest rainfall in the observations over this period.
Series of maps of UK illustrating four storylines of river flows given a dry or wet July combined with sustained settled or unsettled conditions as a result of a shifted jet stream to the north or south of the UK.
💧 How can we plan for future droughts when past observations are limited?
UKCEH hydroclimatologist @wilsonchan.bsky.social explains how ‘hindcasts’ and the UNSEEN method can help us explore rare but plausible scenarios, filling gaps in observations.

🌊 Streamflow Stripes are here!!! 🌊
Just in time for #ShowYourStripes Day – 21st June 🌍
Our team at @ukceh.bsky.social has created UK river flow stripes to visualise how these have changed over time.

CANARI scientists from @ukceh.bsky.social have created UK river flow stripes.
High flows are rising in the north/west and drought risk growing in parts of the south/east. Adaptation is needed to reduce impacts from swings between wet/dry.

Stripes for ocean acidification, air quality, and biodiversity loss reveal alarming trends.
CANARI aims to better understand North Atlantic atmospheric and oceanic circulation and how they may shift in the future.

The stripes tell the story of how our climate has changed and it's not just warming at the surface. Temperatures are changing for the rest of the atmosphere and the ocean too 🌍

Infographic with maps showing how North Atlantic Ocean temperatures are linked to UK droughts many months later.
🌊 Exciting research could help the UK better prepare for droughts...
It shows a link between North Atlantic ocean temperatures and UK summer droughts, with signs up to 18 months ahead ☀️

The study reveals a teleconnection pathway linking North Atlantic sea surface temperature patterns, associated with freshwater inflows into the subpolar region, to shifts in the North Atlantic Current and jet stream, and reduction in UK precipitation and river flows at long lead times

New CANARI research reveals predictability for UK summer droughts up to 1.5 years in advance 🏜️
Find out more in the paper published in Nature Communications Earth & Environment, led by @amulyachevuturi.bsky.social: www.nature.com/articles/s43...
North Atlantic Ocean patterns can signal UK summer droughts up to 1.5 years in advance; offering major potential for early drought forecasting.
