Report by AtkinsRealis on behalf of Oxfordshire County Council April 2024

The report presents a gridded analysis of extreme temperatures and maximum daily rainfall in Oxfordshire under current conditions and future scenarios based on Met Office data.

It considers the consequences of these events and how risks may evolve under several climate change scenarios with a further one to four degrees warming above the 1981-2020 period.

The study is based on a literature review, original analysis of observations and climate change scenarios to quantify the risks of extreme high temperatures and heavy rainfall in Oxfordshire.
