We are studying the impacts of climate change on our natural and managed ecosystems, and connecting scientific knowledge with that from other disciplines to ensure we adapt to environmental change.
Below you will find some of our recent research to better understand the impacts and adaptations to climate change, along with the staff who contribute to the Applied Climate Change research theme. Please don't hesitate to get in contact with any of our research staff if you'd like more information or if you think that there might be an opportunity for a new research partnership.
