BGS are developing a range of climate-focused datasets to assist with this decision making, providing information that will help you make the right decisions when considering potential future climate impacts.
A standard software interface offering data access or data processing services between computers or computer programs.
Gases in the Earth's atmosphere act as an insulating blanket around the planet, trapping more of the Sun’s heat.
Geological records demonstrate that there have been a number of large variations in Earth’s climate in the past.
Temperature rises can affect agriculture, sea levels and the frequency of extreme weather incidents. We can study past climate change by looking at the evidence in rocks, fossils and changes in the landscape.
Carbon capture and storage involves capturing carbon dioxide at emission sources, such as power stations, then transporting and storing it underground.
BGS is committed to research aimed at slowing down the effects of a changing climate, whilst helping society to become resilient to climate change.
