During the European Middle Ages, parts of the world experienced warming similar to that between 1960 to 1990. But the rising temperatures we’re observing now are global and exceed the past record.
The NSW floods are a textbook example of the theoretical impacts we can expect on Australian rainfall as climate change continues.
With research that offers new insights, there is increased hope for improved climate predictions and better preparation for severe weather conditions.
Over the past six months, tourists and locals have been shocked to see Byron’s famous Main Beach literally disappearing. Satellite imagery and local knowledge has revealed what’s going on.
Mosquitoes love the wetter weather La Niña brings to some parts of Australia. But will we see more mosquito-borne disease?
