Abstract
Abstracts are not currently available in GtR for all funded research. This is normally because the abstract was not required at the time of proposal submission, but may be because it included sensitive information such as personal details.

| Description | Man-made climate change has been estimated to cost the UK economy from five to twenty per cent of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) every year1 amounting to £80-320 billion for 2011 GDP2. The NERC National Oceanography Centre (NOC) is providing impartial, independent, world-leading expertise in developing the UK / international scientific consensus that underpins the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) series of Assessment Reports. This expertise is complemented by the RAPID-WATCH programme, led by NOC, an international endeavour that provides the only comprehensive measure of changes in the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC). |
