Our Weybourne Observatory is part of the Integrated Carbon Observation System that collects greenhouse gas data. @ICOS_RI data is used by scientists, governments, and international organisations for climate action. Hear from our scientist @gforster79: 📽️youtube.com/watch?v=TGTlsn…

Instrument scientist Davey Hooper captured some beautiful cirrus clouds at dusk, looking over our Chilbolton Atmospheric Observatory site. Can you make out the silhouette of a Kepler radar? 👀 We thought we'd share some other day-to-night shots of the observatory too 🌝📡

A Helikite has been used for the first time to observe clouds and aerosol particles over central Greenland’s ice sheet. Read our article where we spoke to @heather_guy, a researcher @AtmosScience based @SEELeeds, about the study: ncas.ac.uk/studying-cloud…

Today marks the end of the @metoffice #WesCon2023 Wessex Convection experiment which has been running since June to study convective clouds and the processes leading to summertime storms. (1/4)

That's a wrap! Today marks the end of our #WesCon summer of science with @MetOffice_Sci 👏 The project saw drones, aircraft, radar, radiosondes, lidar, weather stations, radiometers, wind profilers, much more kit, and many people all working together to study summer storms.
