Research has now begun in earnest in the Drought Research Program with all key staff finally in place. This has proved timely. At the time of writing (August 2018) most of NSW has been drought declared and forecasters suggesting little sign of drought-breaking rains over coming months.

Research brief: New insight into plant growth under climate change

July 6, 2018 3:43 am Published by Comments Off on Research brief: New insight into plant growth under climate change

The application of a simple carbon balance model, combined with a data assimilation approach, has the potential to improve the process understanding embedded in models, which is used to predict responses of the carbon cycle to climate change.

PhD Opportunity: Latent heat balance dynamics and heatwaves in cities

June 12, 2018 3:13 am Published by Comments Off on PhD Opportunity: Latent heat balance dynamics and heatwaves in cities

This project will connect plant water use and stomatal conductance models differentiated by vegetation-soil systems with land surface models to provide new insight into the impacts of the built environment on moisture fluxes that influence heatwave intensity. Then it will investigate the climate impacts of the dynamic response of greenery in extreme heat conditions.

Regional adaptions can cool heat extremes by up to 2-3°C
