Knowledge brokers work at the interface of academics and consumers of climate information, sharing knowledge with the goal of facilitating communication and achieving improved outcomes for all.
In recent years, nature-based solutions have gained considerable attention as a means to reach net-zero targets and many governments and companies are incorporating them in their net-zero strategies. Some sectors strongly advocate for these solutions while others criticise them.
Climate model simulations offer us information about possible future outcomes with varying degrees of uncertainty. Understanding uncertainty in climate projections is vital for making more informed decisions and planning adaptation responses.
The Great Barrier Reef has experienced six mass bleaching events and is currently experiencing its seventh bleaching event in 2024. What are the main drivers of coral bleaching and how is climate change affecting the reef?
Understanding the causes of the prolonged drought that helped enable Australia’s Black Summer fire disaster.
As the summer continues many of us are experiencing very hot temperatures. It is important to be prepared for extreme conditions which can lead to heat stress.
Understanding the science around extreme weather attribution and the complex issues associated with it.
Understanding the role of climate change behind costly or deadly impacts allows for mitigation and response systems such as building codes or public health resources to be sufficiently bolstered, particularly as the risk of impacts increases.
Climate models suggest that the rainfall decrease and temperature increase during El Niño will likely intensify in the future.
We used an atmospheric model from the Met office in the UK called the unified model to simulate one of the black summer bushfire events.
