The climate is enormously complex. We should see the first day 2°C warmer than the same day in the pre-industrial period as a stark warning – but not as a sign to give up.
Four scientists from the ARC Centre of Excellence for Climate Extremes have been named in the “Highly Cited Researchers” list for 2023. They are: This list, released on November 15, acknowledges a small fraction of researchers who made significant contributions to their fields of research. They represent only 1 in 1,000 researchers globally. Experts from the Institute for Scientific Information (ISI) selected researchers, based on how often they were cited by their peers. The selection process relied on data from... View Article
Understanding the science around extreme weather attribution and the complex issues associated with it.
What happens to eddies? Like atmospheric systems, these are effectively heat engines. They transport heat to new areas as they whirl in the ocean.
“Over a lot of places, hail-prone days have decreased, but in some places they have significantly increased."
We hope to better understand how our oceans are changing using what we observe in space, at sea — and in the playground.
By far the biggest contributor to the overall +1.7°C global temperature anomaly is human-caused climate change.
Climate scientist Dr Kim Reid speaks to Al Jazeera about 2023's broken records.
Machine learning could help us understand the relationship between water vapour transport and the amount of rain that falls at different locations.
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.
