Global warming to bring record hot year by 2028 – probably our first above 1.5°C limit
May 18, 2023 10:11 am Comments Off on Global warming to bring record hot year by 2028 – probably our first above 1.5°C limitWe have understood the solution for decades. We must reduce emissions to net zero to stop warming Earth.

In hot water: here’s why ocean temperatures are the hottest on record
May 2, 2023 9:13 am Comments Off on In hot water: here’s why ocean temperatures are the hottest on recordWe experience the weather and climate directly, by our lived experience. What matters more is the big picture we are seeing.
Professor Andy Pitman speaks to the Australian Parliament on severe weather and roads
April 20, 2023 3:34 pm Comments Off on Professor Andy Pitman speaks to the Australian Parliament on severe weather and roads"It is unambiguous that climate is changing due to human activity – specifically the emissions of greenhouse gases. These are increasing the risk of some extreme events.”
Modelling Research Program – 2022 Update
April 20, 2023 10:30 am Comments Off on Modelling Research Program – 2022 UpdateNumerical models of the weather and climate system are key research tools in gaining a deeper understanding of the mechanisms that generate climate extremes. They are also our primary tool in assessing how these extremes may be affected as our planet warms. The Modelling research program at the ARC Centre of Excellence for Climate Extremes is therefore an underpinning and enabling activity that develops improved simulations, tools and procedures for use in all research programs across the Centre.

Ocean Extremes Research Program – 2022 Update
April 20, 2023 10:29 am Comments Off on Ocean Extremes Research Program – 2022 UpdateThe ARC Centre of Excellence for Climate Extremes’ Ocean Extremes research program published a range of groundbreaking research keenly focused on our three research projects and the program continued significant interactions with policymakers and industry in 2022. We have had a number of striking papers published. Some, like the paper that explored a massive phytoplankton bloom in the South Pacific, generated significant media coverage, while others had smaller media impact but a profound impact on our understanding of ocean processes....
