Climate change impact studies commonly use models (such as hydrological or crop models) forced with corrected climate input data from global models. A range of downscaling and bias correction methods have been developed to increase the spatial resolution remove systematic biases in model outputs be applied before Many focused on evaluating such approaches for variables they aim correct. However, due nonlinear error propagation there can large remaining outputs, even when ingesting forcings....
Australia's water management and infrastructure decision making needs detailed high-resolution climate forecasts projections to inform the process of water-sensitive making, raise awareness understand future risks, mitigate, adapt, capitalise on impacts a changing in industries ranging from agriculture fire risk. Until now no nationally consistent information hydrological change has existed preventing standardised comparable impact assessments across multiple spatial temporal scales,...
Abstract. The Australian Bureau of Meteorology has developed a national hydrological projections (NHP) service for Australia. NHP aimed to provide nationally consistent across jurisdictional boundaries support planning water-dependent industries. is complementary those previously produced by federal and state governments, universities, other organisations limited geographical domains. comprise an ensemble application-ready bias-corrected climate model data, derived at daily temporal 0.05° ×...
Abstract A trend of increasing rainfall over much north and northwest Australia recent decades has contrasted with decreases the rest continent. The increases have occurred during summer months when rainy season is dominated by Australian monsoon but also affected other events such as tropical cyclones, Madden–Julian oscillations, sporadic thunderstorms. problem diagnosing these trends considered in terms changes timing season. While numerous definitions for rainy/monsoon onset exist, most...
As a response to extreme water shortages in southeast Queensland, Australia, brought about by reduced rainfall and increasing population, the Queensland government decided explore potential for cloud seeding enhance rainfall. The Cloud Seeding Research Program (QCSRP) was conducted region near Brisbane during 2008/09 wet seasons. In addition conducting an initial exploratory, randomized (statistical) study, multiparameter radar measurements situ aircraft microphysical data were collected....
Extreme event attribution (EEA) science estimates the influence of human and natural drivers on extreme weather. Collectively field has demonstrated that human-caused warming contributed to an increased likelihood intensity a range weather events across most inhabited regions. The geographically uneven nature capability globally presents ethical challenges for using in equitable way recommendations extent which EEA can inform decision policy making have been made.As interdisciplinary team...
Abstract The present study aims to determine synoptic regimes associated with rain and no‐rain days in south‐eastern Queensland. A k‐means cluster analysis is used on upper‐air data from Brisbane Airport identify dominant weather for the region. Eight appear succinctly describe main types of conditions experienced Using rainfall 307 sites across region, each regime then characterized. Four are moist conditions; accounts about 15–20% mean total annual rainfall. These preferentially occur...
Abstract The aim of this study is to examine the statistics convective storms and their concomitant changes with thermodynamic variability. variability analyzed by performing a cluster analysis on variables derived from radiosonde releases at Brisbane Airport in Australia. Three objectively defined regimes are found: dry, stable regime mainly westerly surface winds, moist northerly regime, trade wind regime. S-band radar data identified using objective tracking software [Thunderstorm...
