|
| The Department of Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) and the Department of Energy and Climate change (DECC) are the funding providers on behalf of Government and the Devolved Administrations. DECC manages the Met Office Hadley Centre contract while Defra manages the UKCIP, User Interface and Weather Generator contracts, communications strategy, and chairs the Steering Group and Project Management Group. It is also Defra and DECC’s responsibility ultimately to sign off all of the UKCP09 products. |

|
| UKCIP has managed the interface between the UKCP09 project and stakeholders, management of the UKCP09 Users’ Panel, development of the UKCP09 user guidance, management of user training/awareness raising workshops and management of the overall UKCP09 project plan. |

The Met Office Hadley Centre provided the bulk of the science behind UKCP09. It has managed the modelling and development of the probabilistic projections, Regional Climate Model output, marine scenarios, and associated publication of the scientific reports.
|
|
| |
|
| The British Atmospheric Data Centre (BADC) has created the UKCP09 User Interface including provision of technical guidance for the User Interface (sub-contracting Met Office Hadley Centre, UKCIP, University of East Anglia, and Newcastle University) |
|
| |
|
Newcastle University has led on the development of the Weather Generator including technical guidance. They have also been involved in the development of the User Interface in collaboration with BADC.
|
|

|
|
University of East Anglia have developed the Weather Generator in collaboration with the University of Newcastle.
|
|
| |
|
| The Environment Agency, Tyndall Centre, and Marine Climate Change Impacts Partnership have contributed to the modelling and drafting of the marine projections. The Proudman Oceanographic Laboratory has managed the production of the storm surge, multi-level ocean projections and wave projections under contract to the Met Office. |
