In this webinar John Clarke provides a demonstration of how to use the Climate Analogues tool and tailor the results to meet individual needs. A brief introduction to the Climate Change in Australia website is also provided.

In this webinar on 20 March 2018, Dr Eva Cougnon will talk about her work analysing year-to-year sea surface temperature variability around Australia and trying to link the potentially predicable variability for these regions to potential climate drivers.

The ESCC Hub has built on the rich legacy of the Australian Climate Change Science Program (ACCSP), the Australian Government’s largest and longest-running climate science research program. From 1989 until 2016,…

The ESCC Hub’s activities are guided by the Hub Steering Committee, which meets quarterly. Additional perspective and guidance are provided by the Hub Stakeholder Advisory Group, which contains a cross-section…

The Earth Systems and Climate Change (ESCC) Hub was established in 2015 and ran until mid 2021. The Hub was a partnership of Australia’s leading Earth systems and climate change…

We’ve updated Australia’s national climate model, the Australian Community Climate and Earth System Simulator (ACCESS), so it can participate in CMIP6 and therefore be used by national and international climate researchers.

We’ve analysed past climate variability and extremes to enhance our understanding of the underpinning climate drivers, and shed light on the extent to which these extreme events are influenced by human activities.

We’ve developed models that we have used to assess the potential of revegetation and conservation activities in Australia to remove carbon from the atmosphere. We have also produce national and global carbon budget data products and have supported Australia’s contribution to the Global Carbon Project.

We’re improving our understanding of past sea level, storm surges and waves to develop projections for the future, so we can determine the physical impact these changes might have.

We’ve established the National Centre for Coasts and Climate to work with stakeholders to identify the best ways of addressing climate change impacts in Australian coastal ecosystems. We have investigated how coastal vegetated habitats store carbon, how coastal erosion is changing, and have trialled ecological engineering solutions to enhance coastal protection.

PROJECT 2.12: Sea-level projections for NCCARF The National Climate Change Adaptation Research Facility (NCCARF) developed CoastAdapt, a coastal climate risk management tool, which provides practical guidance on how to manage…

We’re improving our observations of our past and current climate so we can better understand the processes driving our climate system, and how they are changing.

We’re improving our understanding of how the climate system may change in the future, so we can be better prepared to address challenges and take advantage of opportunities.

We’re building the utility of Earth systems and climate change information so policy and decision makers have the best available tools to inform adaptation, planning and mitigation responses.

More effective water resources planning, management and infrastructure investment.
