Book launch: Sunburnt Country: the history and future of climate change in Australia by Joelle Gergis
In this symposium, we present early results from research under the international Coal Transitions project and research getting underway as part of the Energy Transition Research Hub.
Speakers: Dr Andrew Constable (ACE CRC) - Overview and Context; Dr Huw Griffiths (British Antarctic Survey) - Species responses: Seafloor winners and losers in warmer seas; Dr Rowan Trebiclo (ACE CRC) - How can models help us assess and manage change?; Dr Jeff McGee (UTas) - Challenges for governing a changing Southern Ocean.
Dr Coady argues that, contrary to Walter Sinnott-Armstrong and a number of other authors, climate change gives rise to personal, not just political, obligations.
The intersection of climate variability and extremes - Sarah Perkins-Kirkpatrick: Climate variability and heatwaves. Yiling Liu: The potential prediction skill of mean and extreme climate conditions on interannual to decadal timescales.
Earth Sciences seminar series: The Australian monsoon and climate change: What can models tells us?
Graeme Pearman, (Melbourne University). Examining the limits to bio-energy and bio-sequestration
An insiders view of Nature journals
In this presentation the speaker will survey elements of sea level change, both at the large scale and within the coastal zone. Reasons for pushing forward with refined resolution global models in order to incorporate processes along the coast that allow for more meaningful and useful projections of sea level changes and their associated impacts will be also discussed.
