CSIRO02: Analysing long tide gauge records in Australia in conjunction with the 20th Century reanalysis to better understand how extreme events and by association extreme sea level events are changing

Understanding historical changes in extreme sea levels is necessary for the accurate projection of their changes over the next century. This project will look at digitized sea level data, to better understand the causes of extreme sea levels the southern Australian region and how these events vary over the duration of the record.

ANU03: Understanding ocean heat transport to the Antarctic continental shelf

This project investigates access pathways of the relatively warm water to the continental shelf by analysing output from a coupled ocean – sea ice model. The student will gain experience in polar oceanography and in the analysis and visualisation of large numerical datasets using python.
