Executive summary climate change and the East Midlands economy
This report examines the way in which the weather has influenced the East Midlands economy in recent years and considers how climate change may influence this relationship during the 21st century. It considers how changing weather patterns will impact upon energy, water and flood risk, transport, agriculture, the built environment, tourism and health in the region

Projected impacts on heat-related mortality from changes in the mean and variability of temperature with climate change
The aim of this paper is to demonstrate the importance of changing temperature variability
with climate change in assessments of future heat-related mortality. Previous studies have only considered
changes in the mean temperature. Here we present estimates of heat-related mortality resulting from climate
change for six cities: Boston, Budapest, Dallas, Lisbon, London and Sydney. They are based on climate
change scenarios for the 2080s (2070-2099) and the temperature-mortality (t-m) models constructed and
validated in Gosling et al. (2007). We propose a novel methodology for assessing the impacts of climate
change on heat-related mortality that considers both changes in the mean and variability of the temperature
distribution
An analysis of specialist and non-specialist user requirements for geographic climate change information
This article was published in the journal, Applied Ergonomics [© Elsevier Ltd and The Ergonomics Society] and the definitive version is available at: http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.apergo.2013.03.029The EU EuroClim project developed a system to monitor and record climate change indicator data based on satellite observations of snow cover, sea ice and glaciers in Northern Europe and the Arctic. It also contained projection data for temperature, rainfall and average wind speed for Europe. These were all stored as data sets in a GIS database for users to download. The process of gathering requirements for a user population including scientists, researchers, policy makers, educationalists and the general public is described. Using an iterative design methodology, a user survey was administered to obtain initial feedback on the system concept followed by panel sessions where users were presented with the system concept and a demonstrator to interact with it. The requirements of both specialist and non-specialist users is summarised together with strategies for the effective communication of geographic climate change information
