High winds and extreme precipitation from extratropical cyclones can result in windstorm damage, flooding and coastal storm surge. Understanding the impacts of climate change on extratropical cyclones is critical to assessing future weather risk. TEMPEST is a 3-year proposed programme of research addressing the climate science deliverable of the NERC Storm Risk Mitigation directed programme. The climate deliverable is to provide an improved understanding of how climate change and natural variability will affect the generation and evolution of extra-tropical cyclones. TEMPEST will achieve this improved understanding by addressing the scientific questions raised in the Storm Risk Mitigation climate deliverable. TEMPEST aims to address these questions by, Providing the first systematic assessment of how intense extratropical cyclones are predicted to change in the Fifth Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP5) climate models Performing an integrated set of sensitivity experiments with the Met Office Unified Model to quantify the key processes that determine the spread of climate model predictions Investigating the response of intense extratropical cyclones to climate change in very high-resolution global atmospheric model experiments capable of capturing mesoscale structures. \r\n<p />\r\nThe focus in TEMPEST is on intense extratropical cyclones that affect Europe. This is partly due to the socioeconomic impacts of such storms, but is also partly driven by the scientific need to address the particularly large spread in climate model predictions for extratropical cyclone activity over the North Atlantic and Europe. It is envisaged that the outcomes from TEMPEST will feed directly into the forthcoming IPCC assessment report (AR5). TEMPEST will also have strong synergies with other LWEC (Living With Environmental Change) programmes, most notably the JWCRP (Joint Met Office/NERC Weather and Climate Research Programme) and the CWC (Changing Water Cycle) research programme. The questions posed by the Storm Risk Mitigation climate deliverable cut across the traditional boundaries of weather and climate modelling communities. To tackle these questions, we aim to bring together scientists from the climate, weather and statistical communities at the Universities of Exeter, Oxford and Reading, the Met Office and ECMWF (European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts). By engaging the wider community within TEMPEST, we will enable the development of links with the Impacts and Numerical Weather Prediction projects in the Storm Risk Mitigation programme.\r\n</div>",

The topography of the sea floor, generally known as the bathymetry, evolves over time as sediment is eroded, transported and deposited by water action. The change in bathymetry itself changes the motion of the water, which is also influenced by tides and weather patterns, such as storm surges. An accurate, up-to-date knowledge of coastal bathymetry would allow improved flood forecasting. Improved prediction of future bathymetry, and knowledge of the uncertainty in that prediction, would allow construction of better sea defences, better management of coastal habitats, and better understanding of the effects of changes in land use near the coast. It may also provide better understanding of the effects of climate change (e.g. sea level rise, and increased numbers of extreme storm events) on the longer-term evolution of an estuary. \r\n</p><p>Coastal sediment transport models are becoming increasingly sophisticated. However, observed bathymetric samples typically only provide partial coverage of the domain of such a model. Hence, initialisation of such models using only a set of recent observations is not feasible. The effective and efficient use of limited data, such as these, requires state-of-the-art mathematical, statistical and computational methods, known as data assimilation techniques. Data assimilation combines empirical observations with model predictions to give more accurate and well-calibrated forecasts and enables the uncertainties in the forecasts to be calculated. Whilst data assimilation has been in use in the context of atmospheric and oceanic prediction for some years, its use in the context of coastal sediment modelling is novel. \r\n</p><p>This project will use data assimilation techniques with a coastal sediment transport model to maintain up-to-date near-shore bathymetry, predict future bathymetry, answer statistical questions regarding uncertainty and predictability, gain insight into physical processes taking place during intense storm events and to design an optimal observation strategy for coastal monitoring. Three coastal sites have been identified for numerical experiments: River Dee, Morecambe Bay and East Lincolnshire coast, UK. </p><p>Methodologies will be developed and tested using data from the first site and validated using independent data from the other sites, demonstrating the wider applicability of ideas. The novel use of data assimilation will allow improved estimates of the current bathymetry, and improved predictions of future bathymetry via better initialisation, error estimates for the improved bathymetry, and a means to estimate model parameters from indirect observations. The direct involvement of the Environment Agency in the project will ensure that the resulting benefits are transferred into operational practice. \r\n</p><p> Project Duration: January 2007 - October 2010.\r\n\r\n</p><p>This project is funded by NERC - Grant Ref.

Scenarios of future change are derived from simulations with global and regional climate models, and our confidence in scenarios of future precipitation extremes rests on our assessment of the reliability of those models. \r\n</p><p>We propose to evaluate these models by careful comparison of their simulations with observed variations in extreme precipitation events. Our comparisons will go far beyond simple comparisons of the statistics of simulated and observed events, but will in addition assess the linkages between atmospheric circulation variability (wind speeds and directions, stability, convergence and uplift), atmospheric humidity, and resulting precipitation extremes in both models and the real world. We will then extend the assessment to consider whether including changes in greenhouse gases (and other external climate influences) in the model simulations improves the agreement with changes detected in the observational data.\r\n</p><p>Project Duration: February 2007 - January 2009.\r\n</p><p>This project is funded by NERC - Grant Ref.

This will combine existing and emerging technologies, to provide national and regional estimates of flood risk based on gridded models for improved assessment of flood risk to recurrence intervals in excess of 50 years. Linking gridded rainfall, runoff, flood defence performance and flood inundation models will significantly improve our ability to assess flood risk from extreme events and explore the potential impacts of climate change, including new scenarios, as they become available from UKCIPnext. This will include a spatially and temporally consistent gridded rainfall model operating over large spatial domains, a high resolution gridded runoff and flow routing model capable of modelling at the national scale and a continuous system analysis of flood inundation, taking account of defence performance. As each of these models will be run continuously in time, a continuous, linked flood risk analysis system will be developed for the first time. Each model will also be able to use derived future changes in climate to produce predictions of future in flood risk. \r\n</p><p>\r\nMoreover there will be an assessment of the model and data uncertainties, as well as estimates of uncertainty due to climate change. These uncertainty assessments will include the propagation of uncertainty through the linked modelling system. The research will utilise many existing sources of data and build upon some established models and techniques, such as the Neyman-Scott Rectangular Pulses (NSRP) stochastic rainfall at the University of Newcastle, the CEH Grid-to-Grid (G2G) model, the <a href=\"http://www.rasp-project.net/\">RASP</a> system models, and the use ensemble scenario sets to represent uncertainty. At the regional or large basin-scale analyses will include a grid-based (5km) rainfall model linked to a (1km) gridded runoff and routing model and associated knowledge of defence systems and new routines developed to translate rainfall to river levels. Such a modelling system is ultimately applicable at a national scale and this will be demonstrated for river flows. The precipitation for this demonstration will be sourced from observed rainfall datasets, or modelled time series, such as those available from Regional Climate Models (RCMs) driven with re-analysis data. \r\n\r\n</p><p>The impact of future changes in rainfall, runoff and river levels on flood risk will be assessed within an enhanced version of the HR Wallingford RASP HLMplus model. Scenarios of climate change will be derived from a range of both global (GCMs) and regional climate models (RCMs). There will also be an analysis of the application of multi-ensemble climate scenarios and the generation of probabilistic scenarios of change in future flood risk. \r\n</p><p> Project Duration: January 2007 - March 2011.\r\n</p><p>This project is funded by NERC - Grant Ref.

In addition, global climate changes may lead to increasingly frequency and severity of storms. As a result the value of he UK's assets at risk from flooding by the sea have significantly increased. The current UK coastal flood defences, which have typically been designed to cope with severe storm events with a return period of 50-100 years, may be now inadequate to protect the coastal areas under threat. To improve the design of future coastal defences requires a better understanding of the linkages between atmosphere, ocean and seabed; as well as improved quantification of the inherent uncertainties in the predictions. \r\n</p><p>This joint research proposal between the Universities of Plymouth, Bristol and Liverpool, aims to develop a robust and integrated \"Cloud-to-Coast\" modelling framework which will include the complex interactions between atmosphere, ocean and coastal flood and erosion, so that the flood risk in the coastal areas from the extreme events, such as severe storms, can be accurately predicted and assessed. The project will use various existing proven computer programmes together with necessary further developments to provide information on meteorological conditions under severe storms, the associated surge and wave conditions, as well as detailed transformation of wind and waves from the offshore to areas close to shoreline in order to predict coastal flood and erosion due to wave overtopping and scour.\r\n</p><p> Project Duration: January 2007 - January 2011.\r\n</p><p>This project is funded by NERC - Grant Ref.

The project involves improving the software that links the sensors and distributed computing resources. This will allow distributed hydraulic routing models to be run, with the possibility of reducing the uncertainty in their predictions by using the sensor information in real-time. Since the GridStix also have on-board computing capabilities there is also a possibility of building a cheap local forecasting system for specific points at risk of flooding. The science questions involved include how best to make the netwroking robust, how best to constrain the uncertainty in flood routing models and improve their predictions, and how best to implement the local flood forecasting models. The research will be implemented on the River Ribble, subject to regular fluvial flooding, and the tidal system of the River Dee Estuary.

This would avoid relying immediately on the assumptions built into existing methodology and provide an independent check on these. It would also allow the construction of a statistical methodology tailored both to the observed properties of the datasets and to the estimation of the relevant properties of extreme events that need to be extracted from the data. Joint probability analysis would be one of the main statistical approaches being used. As well as providing useful insight into the occurrence of flooding, this has the potential to lead to more statistically efficient estimation of floods. Further insights into flooding problems will be sought by directly considering the seasonality of flood events in all the analyses. The datasets available can realistically be expected to provide good estimates of floods with return periods of 10-20 years, but the statistical models used can be employed to extrapolate to return periods of 50, 100 or even 1000 years. For such extrapolation the uncertainties inherent in this estimation are likely to be large and an important aim of the project will be to provide a useful assessment of this uncertainty. Hourly datasets already held at the <a href=\"http://www.ceh.ac.uk/\">NERC Centre for Ecology and Hydrology (CEH)</a> will be used for the project.\r\n</p><p>Project Duration: October 2007 - October 2010.\r\n\r\n</p><p>This project is funded by NERC - Grant Ref.

There are particular issues for floods, where there is evidence that agricultural land management can increase local flood risk, but no evidence-based quantification of downstream impacts at larger scales. If such effects exist, as the local evidence suggests, clearly there is potential for use of land management to mitigate flood risk. \r\n</p><p>The basic scientific question to be addressed in this research is therefore: how do the effects of land use management propagate from the local scale (~ 1 ha, and below) to that of mesoscale catchments (~ 100 km2) and affect extreme floods? If an answer can be found, it will be possible to make useful predictions for the effects of future land use management changes on extreme floods. Such predictions would have wide use, including in preparing catchment flood management plans.\r\n</p><p>Research like this demands high-quality long-term data sets, but there are relatively few data sets available. Modelling is essential to make the best use of the available data and to encapsulate and explore the understanding of the processes involved in the link between changes in land use management and flooding. Unfortunately, our current rainfall/runoff models are simply inadequate for this task, because they cannot adequately represent the underlying complexity associated with the effects of land use management on runoff generation, or the propagation of these effects downstream. \r\n</p><p>The level of activity and interest in understanding and manipulating the link between land use management and flooding is very high, and recent mitigation works and investments in field research have resulted in new unique and important data sets being available to the Investigators: the <a href=\"http://www.floodrisk.org.uk/component/option,com_frontpage/Itemid,1/\">FRMRC</a> field sites at Pontbren in the upper Severn catchment; the <a href=\"http://www.ncl.ac.uk/chasm/\">CHASM</a> multi-scale monitoring for the Eden catchment; and the Sustainable Catchment\r\nManagement Programme (SCaMP) large-scale land use management changes currently underway in the Ribble catchment. There are also new relevant developments in modelling, including local-scale runoff generation modelling developed at Imperial College and network routing modelling and information tracking methods developed at Newcastle University. </p><p>This data and modelling will be brought together to tackle the basic scientific question above, within the practical context of predicting the likely effects that given land use management mitigation and adaptation strategies would have in reducing flood risk in the Severn, Eden, and Ribble catchments, for a range of specified extreme flood return periods. This project will provide improved scientific understanding of the effects of land use management in extreme floods, and also provide results of the type required by those involved in decision-making, such as consultants and policy makers looking for answers to some of the general questions raised in Defra's Making Space for Water consultation. The results will include maps showing the application areas for any management interventions achieving effective downstream hydrograph attenuation, for the present and possible future climates. \r\n\r\n</p><p>The project also represents a major contribution to the next generation of whole-catchment continuous simulation modelling, which will help improve its capability and reliability for predicting the effect of land use management change on extreme flooding. The EA/Defra have agreed to fund a parallel programme of experimental research in the upper Ribble (funding &#163;200K), to provide the necessary data for the effects of afforestation and blocking of moorland grips. \r\n</p><p>Project Duration: December 2007 - March 2011.\r\n</p><p>This project is funded by NERC - Grant Ref.

One outcome of this effort is expected to be improvements in how well CCMs represent physical, chemical, and dynamical processes. In addition, this effort will focus on understanding the ability of CCMs to reproduce past trends and variability and providing predictions from ensembles of long model runs. Achieving these goals will involve comparing CCM constituent distributions with (robust) relationships between constituent variables as found in observations. This effort is both a model-model and modeldata comparison exercise.At the Grainau workshop, a set of key diagnostics was defined\r\nfor evaluating CCM performance with respect to radiation, dynamics, transport, and stratospheric chemistry and microphysics (http://www.pa.op.dlr.de/CCMVal/) This approach allows modellers to decide (based on their own priorities and resources) which diagnostics to examine in any particular area. The CCMVal activity will help coordinate and organize CCM model efforts around the world. In this way,the CCM community can provide the maximum amount of useful scientific information for WMO/UNEP and IPCC assessments.\r\n</p> <p>\r\nAs a first step, the CCM community has defined two reference simulations and a set of model forcings to support the upcoming WMO/UNEP Scientific Assessment of Ozone Depletion. The forcings are defined by natural and anthropogenic emissions based on existing scenarios, on atmospheric observations, and on the Kyoto and Montreal Protocols and Amendments. \r\n</p> <p />",

Many of the NCAS teams familiar with the aircraft are participating.\r\n\r\n <strong>The main science objectives are:</strong>\r\n\r\n <li>Composition:\r\nCO1: RONOCO: RONOCO had a number of successful flights during July and is seeking to add to its data set by flying at a different time of year to obtain a wider range of conditions. NCAS will support this activity. (lead: Jones)\r\n\r\nCO2: Impact of biogenics on ozone formation: The SE UK is impacted by high O3 events under anticyclonic conditions. The role of biogenic VOCs, emitted at high concentrations during similar conditions, in causing these events will be investigated and chemical forecasts will be tested. This is a pilot study for a possible Dec 1 grant application. (Lead: :Lee/Purvis)\r\n\r\nCO3: Pollution studies around the UK and Ireland (AMPEP Type flights) will deliver information to constrain emissions estimates of reactive trace gases, radiatively active gases and aerosols from urban and larger scales. We will seek to extend this work to investigate emissions of radiatively active gases from Ireland. (Leads: Hopkins; Percival; Gallagher)\r\n\r\nFGAM1: Instrument testing of FAGE\r\nFGAM2: Instrument testing of the upgraded LTI \r\n\r\n</li> <li>Weather:\r\nW1: Land-Atmosphere Interactions: Water stress over East Anglia is likely to be a major problem during dry summer periods, conversely during wet periods, moist conditions may well feed more moisture into convective precipitation events. These interactions will be investigated using similar flight patterns to those conducted during AMMA. (Lead: Parker/Marsham)\r\n\r\nW2: North Sea Stratocumulus studies: These studies will be flown in support of the Met office&#8217;s COALESC project. (Lead: Coe)\r\n\r\nW3: Mixed Phase cloud studies: These studies will investigate mixed phase cloud in the region of Chilbolton (Lead: Crosier, Bower, Choularton, Blyth)\r\n\r\nFGAM2: Instrument testing of the upgraded LTI\r\n\r\nFGAM3: testing of a range of modifications to Cloud Physics Probes.\r\n\r\nCO5: North Portugese wildfires: Wildfires are common in northern Portugal during late summer and have a significant radiative impact on the region. This study will use a set of suitcase flights to follow BB plumes and investigate the emission and transformation of pollution and assess its radiative properties (Lead McMeeking).\r\n\r\n<h2>Availability of data</h2>\r\nData from these SeptEx flights will be stored in the BADC <a href=\"/cgi-bin/data_browser/data_browser/badc/faam/data/2010\">FAAM archive</a>.

This will increase the coastal flooding risk to property, businesses, industry, roads and rail networks at great cost to us all. We must now face the consequences of climate change and either invest in sustainable defences or develop new ways to live with more flooding. The first option will cost a great deal of money and the second option may mean we need to change radically the way we currently occupy and use the coastal environment. \r\n</p><p>The Coastal Flooding by Extreme Events (CoFEE) project will use our present knowledge of the eastern Irish Sea coastline in computer models to investigate the speed and extent of coastal flooding during storms and to determine how sensitive our coasts are to extreme events. \r\n</p><p>CoFEE will attempt to answer 4 questions: \r\n</p><blockquote>\r\n(a) how big will coastal floods be in the future; <br />\r\n(b) which types of coast can we leave to flood and which must we defend;<br /> \r\n(c) what might the coast look like in the future;<br /> \r\n(d) what are the risks of allowing coastal flooding to occur? </blockquote>\r\n<p>CoFEE will look at different natural coastlines that include, estuaries, beaches and sand dunes and coastlines that are defended by a range of man-made structures. The results will be applicable to coastal areas elsewhere in Britain and more widely. \r\n</p><p>By bringing together scientists, engineers and the people who plan flood defences, CoFEE will provide the basis for predicting the threat of coastal floods in a changing climate so that resources can be better targeted to deliver more effective, better informed and sustainable strategies for managing the flood risk to our coastlines in the future.\r\n</p><p> Project Duration: April 2007 - May 2010.\r\n</p><p>This project is funded by NERC - Grant Ref.
