New projections show a clear trend towards more dangerous conditions for bushfires in Australia into the future, as well as increased pyroconvection risk factors for some regions of southern Australia.

In this webinar, Associate Professor David Kennedy discusses the current state of knowledge on beach and dune landform dynamics. He also draws on a range of examples from around Australia exploring the decadal timescales on which beaches operate and how this impacts coastal erosion management decisions.
-
New ESCC Hub research published in Nature Climate Change examines future high monthly mean temperature records that will be so extreme they will not have been experienced previously. It provides projections of the rate of extreme temperature record setting and record ‘smashing’ (when a record exceeds the previous record by a large amount) over the coming century.
-
In this webinar, Professor Neil Holbrook discusses our understanding of ocean temperature extremes and marine heatwaves globally and regionally, including some of the more significant marine heatwave events observed around the world in recent years, their impacts and what caused them.
-
Earth Systems and Climate Change Hub researchers are working collaboratively with other research organisations to better understand how and why marine heatwaves are changing and their impacts on ecosystems and industries.

In this webinar, Dr Pandora Hope from the Bureau of Meteorology provides an overview of the latest extreme event attribution science, discusses results from a number of case studies across Australia and hints at where future research might lead.
