Adam A. Scaife is a British physicist and head of long range prediction at the Met Office.
[2] Scaife carries out research into long range weather forecasting and computer modelling of the climate and has published over 250 peer reviewed studies[3] on atmospheric dynamics, computer modelling and climate as well as popular science [4] [5] and academic books[6] on meteorology.
Many of his studies show how predictable factors[11][12][13][14] affect weather from months to decades ahead.
He now leads research and production of monthly, seasonal and decadal predictions at the Met Office.
[19] Scaife was co-chair of the World Meteorological Organisation's Working Group on Seasonal to Interannual Prediction[20] and served as a member of the scientific steering group of the World Climate Research Programme's core project on the stratosphere and its role in climate.
