In this presentation, Dr Sophie Lewis will discuss these human influences on past, present and future extreme climate events in Australia. Are our recent extremes a sign of a new normal and how bad could it get?
CMS will be running the sessions at the same time at all nodes using video-conferencing.
The ARC Centres of Excellence for Climate System Science and Climate Extremes will host a graduate level winter school on June 25-29, 2018, at the Australian National University, Canberra. The theme of the Winter School is Climate Extremes and High Impact Weather.
This event will explore the ways private sector leaders are redefining the way their industries do business, in line with the net-zero emissions future. The panel will reflect the range of sectors who have made commercial decisions to adopt new practices that are consistent with Paris Agreement commitments.
