Understanding Tasmania’s climate sensitivities and information needs

CASE STUDY 5.3: TasLab Engage

Extreme climate events impact a number of sectors across Tasmania, including water, agriculture, aquaculture and emergency response. These events are costly and difficult to plan for. Information on the form these extremes might take over the coming years, their past variability and guidance on the use of relevant climate information will assist with planning for these events.

To better understand the climate information needs in Tasmania, we’re supporting TasLab Engage, an initiative to facilitate engagement between industry groups and scientists to understand industry-specific climate sensitivities and identify the relevant climate information required.

The engagement activities supported in this case will ultimately contribute to better management of climate-sensitive systems in Tasmania and increased resilience to climate extremes.

Commenced: January 2019
