Professor Sir David King, former Government Chief Scientific Adviser and newly appointed Chair of the NOC Advisory Council, joined ITN’s Health and Science Editor, Lawrence McGinty, and leading scientists from NOC and the University of Liverpool to discuss the latest research on climate change earlier this month.
The National Oceanography Centre’s Liverpool site and the British Oceanographic Data Centre (BODC) are celebrating retaining the prestigious Investors in People (IiP) standard.
On Thursday 10 February, former Government Chief Scientific Officer, Professor Sir David King, and ITN’s Health and Science Editor, Lawrence McGinty, will be joined by the UK’s leading scientists to discuss the latest research on climate change.
Dr Kevin Horsburgh and Prof. John Huthnance of the National Oceanography Centre (NOC) are among the organizers of an ongoing programme of workshops and conferences being held at the Isaac Newton Institute for Mathematical Sciences (INI) in Cambridge entitled ‘Mathematical and Statistical Approaches to Climate Modelling and Prediction’ (11 August – 22 December 2010).
Sea levels around the Falkland Islands in the South Atlantic have risen since the mid nineteenth century and the rate of sea-level rise has accelerated over recent decades, according to newly published research. The findings are as expected under global warming and consistent with observations elsewhere around the globe.
Scientific findings by international research group of scientists from England, China and Denmark just published suggest that sea level will likely be 30–70 centimetres higher by 2100 than at the start of the century.
