About Colin

Professor Colin Jones is an NCAS Professor in the School of Earth, Environment and Sustainability at the University of Leeds, within the Faculty of Environment. He serves as a core scientist for the National Centre for Atmospheric Science (NCAS) and heads the joint Met Office/NERC UK Earth System Modelling (UKESM) project. Based at the Met Office in Exeter, where the bulk of the UKESM core group is located, his primary role involves leading the development of the next generation of UK Earth system models. The first version, UKESM1, is targeted for application within the World Climate Research Programme's 6th Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP6). This initiative focuses on enhancing simulations of complex Earth system interactions, including atmospheric, oceanic, land, and biogeochemical processes to improve climate prediction capabilities.
