PROJECT 5.3: Regional climate change projections science and delivery To make informed decisions about managing current and future climate risks, decision-makers across government, industry and business require access to credible, …

Analysis of 67 years of fire weather data shows a clear link between climate change and bushfire conditions.

Hub researchers are using a combination of observations and modelling to better understand the frequency and intensity of extreme weather events.

A new fire weather dataset will inform our understanding of the climate changes that are already occurring, and those still to come.

Our research into sea level, storm surges and waves will inform policy, planning and development decisions that will minimise the economic, environmental and human cost of coastal hazards.

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 …

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 …

We’ve made significant steps towards developing a decadal forecasting system and capability to fill the critical gap between seasonal climate predictions and multi-decadal climate projections. We’ve also improved understanding of …
