The ARC Centre of Excellence for Climate Extremes was formally started on August 4, 2017. We have a Centre launch on April 10, which is something we all look forward to.
A great deal of effort has gone into hiring some outstanding research fellows and multiple new CLEX students.
The research leaders of the Centre's four programs have met to refine their research strategies and identify the main priorities.
