Understanding climate
The Walker Institute is enhancing understanding of the fundamental processes that govern the climate system and how it changes.
Researchers are working to understand what controls natural climate variability, for example across Europe, and to understand how natural variability and man-made climate change will interact to affect the climate over the coming decades.
By understanding these processes we develop better climate models and improve predictions of how climate might change in the future.
The research groups are drawn from a range of Schools and Departments: Department of Meteorology, NCAS-Climate@Reading, School of Agriculture, Policy and Development and the School of Human and Environmenal Sciences.
