Tyndall Centre for Climate Change Research
Note: NERC no longer uses the term 'collaborative centres'. The following former collaborative centre continues to operate, but since 2010 it is no longer supported by the research councils, and is now run entirely by the University of East Anglia. This page is therefore preserved for reference purposes only.
The Tyndall Centre brought together scientists, economists, engineers and social scientists to develop sustainable responses to climate change through trans-disciplinary research and dialogue on both a national and international level.
The centre's three core objectives were:
- to seek, evaluate and facilitate sustainable responses to climate change that will minimise its adverse effects and stimulate policy
- to develop, demonstrate and apply new methods for integrating climate change related knowledge
- to promote informed and effective dialogue across society about the options to manage our future climate.
The Tyndall Centre was funded through grants provided by a partnership of NERC, the Economic & Social Research Council and the Engineering & Physical Sciences Research Council. The centre was a unique partnership between researchers from six UK research institutions.
