Atmospheric rivers in Australia
August 4, 2022 10:27 am Leave your thoughtsWe are conducting research to determine if we can forecast changes in the probability of extreme rainfall events associated with atmospheric rivers 2-6 weeks ahead.
The role of clouds in coral bleaching events over the Great Barrier Reef
July 26, 2022 9:10 am Leave your thoughtsFurther understanding of the role of clouds may improve the knowledge of local atmosphere-ocean interactions, aiding the forecasting of coral bleaching events.
Multi-year La Niña events
June 28, 2022 9:07 am Leave your thoughtsLa Niña is an important cause of rainfall variability of Australia. A multi-year La Niña event can be particularly important for some climate risks. Some climate models are indicating that La Niña may continue for a third year through spring and summer 2022-23, increasing the chances of more rain and flooding.
Understanding Australia’s rainfall
June 8, 2022 3:41 pm Leave your thoughtsBy bringing together researchers focussed on the large-scale modes of climate variability with researchers investigating weather and land surface processes, our goal is to improve the regional predictions of how rainfall extremes will change in the future.
A new global picture of compounding weather and climate hazards
May 2, 2022 1:59 pm Leave your thoughtsThe difference in results between the high-skill and low-skill CMIP6 models highlights an urgent need to examine why some models work well and some don’t, and, ultimately, improve those with weaknesses.
