The CSIRO and Bureau of Meteorology have compiled different models for predicting the outcome of climate change in Australia to produce a guide to how different regions are likely to be affected.
According to this work, every part of Australia will continue to experience increases in average temperature and will have a higher frequency of hot days. The projections on rainfall and drought are more variable, as is the change in fire weather and intensity.
We have reproduced the summaries for each region so you can see how the climate crisis might impact your area. We’ve also added a postcode and suburb search – either type in your area or click on the region you’re interested in.
All of the projections are assigned a confidence level based on evidence, and amount of agreement between various bits of evidence.
