In the Spotlight Historical documents allow scientists to reconstruct the flooding history in Italy over hundreds of years 24 September 2019 Severe flooding has always had severe impacts on societies. A recent study looked at damaging floods in Italy before the year 800. In the Spotlight Extreme precipitation - the future of UK summers? 06 September 2018 Extreme weather has been the feature of the UK for most of this year so far, from heavy snowfall in late winter to very high temperatures in early summer. In the Spotlight Study finds link between antibiotic resistance and temperature increase 05 June 2018 Antibiotics are widely used in both animals and humans to treat bacterial infection. This use (and often overuse) has caused bacteria to evolve and develop resistances against the treatment, posing great risks for human health globally. In the Spotlight 2017: the warmest year on record without an El Niño 18 January 2018 Confirmation that 2017 was the warmest year without an El Niño boost has come from the Met Office Hadley Centre and UEA. In the Spotlight Climate change to increase clear-air turbulence threefold 01 December 2017 Climate change isn’t just something that is occurring at ground level, but also high up into the atmosphere – and it will have significant impacts on air travel. In the Spotlight Drizzle riddle solved 22 August 2017 Updrafts are more important than previously thought in determining whether clouds produce drizzle rather than normal-sized raindrops. In the Spotlight Why does pressure fall off more slowly in warm air than cold air? 20 June 2017 There are two questions here. The first is does pressure fall off more slowly in warm air than cold air? In the Spotlight Wind speeds in Saturn's jet stream whizz round at over 1,000mph 11 November 2016 New research has revealed the planet has the widest, most intense jet stream out of all the planets in the solar system In the Spotlight Have you seen the climate spiral? 03 June 2016
