Tropical cyclone tracks are displayed from periods within baseline and future climates simulated by CMIP5 Global Climate Models using the RCP 8.5 emissions pathway, as well as those observed historically and published in the WMO version of the IBTrACS global best-track archive (v03r10). Various other products are derived from these data sets, including climatologies of and changes in: - spatial density of number of TCs per decade; - density of storms impacting on Australia's coastline; - the simulated number and seasonal cycle of TCs; - relationship of projected change in Australian-region TCs with changes in temperature and precipitation in the region. less
NESP ESCC Extreme weather projections - Tropical Cyclone Projections Portal - Published 27 Jun 2019
This data is associated with the paper O’Grady, J.G., McInnes, K.L., Hemer, M. A., Hoeke, R. K., Stephenson, A., and Colberg, F. (in press), "Extreme Water Levels for Australian Beaches using Empirica... morel Equations for Shoreline Wave Setup", Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans. Understanding how high ocean water levels can reach up the coast is important for designing coastal protection from coastal inundation and erosion. This is particularly important as climate change affects wind and weather conditions and sea-level rise with the subsequent modification to the occurrence of the largest storm-driven water levels. While the height of storm-driven water levels are well understood for protected harbours and estuaries, new research is providing estimates of how high water levels can reach for coastlines exposed to dangerous wave/surf conditions. This study uses mathematical model simulations spanning ~30 years of historical water levels and ocean waves. Statistical analysis is performed to determine how high the largest storm events will likely reach on natural sandy beaches directly exposed to large wave/surf conditions. The data comprises Gumbel distribution parameters from regression fitting to the hindcast model data. The file ST_rGUM_25m_sta.1981-2013.nc is for the storm-tide SWL heights from the ROMS storm surge hindcast. The file SU_GT81_rGUM_25m_sta.1981-2013.nc is for wave setup calculated with the Guza, R. T., & Thornton 1981 method. The file SU_GT81_ST_rGUM_25m_sta.1981-2013.nc is for the time-series combined storm-tide and wave setup. Notes: 1) The data datum is relative to the model bathymetry mean sea level (Geoscience Australia’s 2009 250m dataset). Haigh corrected their dataset of storm tide to AHD by comparing modelled 1-year ARI to the tide gauge measurements. “The predicted levels have been artificially adjusted so that the 1-year return period levels exactly match those of the measured estimates at each site. This was done because the predicted water levels are relative to MSL, whereas the measured levels are relative to AHD. Around mainland Australia, AHD was defined using MSL records between 1966 and 1968 at 30 sites and hence differs from present day MSL. Around Tasmania, AHD was defined using two records from 1972.” 2) To convert to AHD, the netcdf file ‘ST_rGUM_25m_sta.1981-2013.nc’ has a variable ‘toAHD’, you will need to add this onto the location parameter ‘mu’. Alternatively add it to the predicted return levels. 3) Wave setup is really only valid for open coastlines exposed to waves, so be careful applying it in estuaries.less

A set of up to 26 models were used for all PACCSAP reporting, but some other models... more are now processed as well as part of the NRM and ACCSP projects. Datasets are complete time series as well averages for 1986-2005, 2020-2039, 2040-2059, 2060-2079 and 2080-2099. Derived variables are: • Climatologies for each period • Changes between periods (absolute and %) • Expert Team on Climate Change Detection and Indices (ETCCDI) extremes indices (e.g. annual maximums) • Average recurrence interval (ARI) calculations of 1-year, 2-year, 5-year, 10-year, 20-year, 50-year and 100-year events fro rainfall and temperature extremes • Standardised precipitation index (SPI) of meteorological drought • Area-average means and changes for each partner nation and each NRM cluster region for all fieldsless

Dynamically downscaled climate simulations for Victoria from 1961 to 2099 using the Conformal Cubic Atmospheric Model (CCAM) r3355. An ensemble of Global Climate Models were downscaled (ACCESS1-0, CN... moreRM-CM5, GFDL-ESM2M, HadGEM2, MIROC5 and NorESM1-M) from the CMIP5 archive for historical, RCP4.5 and RCP8.5, as well as downscaling ERA-Interim. Sea Surface Temperatures (SST) were bias corrected and the global atmosphere simulated at 50 km resolution with only SST forcing. The 50 km simulation was then downscaled to 5 km resolution over Victoria using CCAM’s variable resolution grid and a scale-selective filter. The dataset was created with support from Wine Australia, the Victorian Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning, the University of Tasmania, as well as CSIRO Oceans and Atmosphere.less

This record describes the End of Voyage (EOV) archive from the Marine National Facility (MNF) RV Investigator Charter Voyage IN2015_C01, titled: "Great Australian Bight (GAB) deep water geological an... mored benthic ecology program". The voyage took place from Hobart (TAS) to Port Lincoln (SA) between October 22 and November 28, 2015. For further information refer to the Voyage documentation links below. Data collected include: Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler ADCP: 75, 150 KHz, CTD, Gravity, Hydrology, Atmospheric data: Absorption Photometer, Nephelometer, Ozone, Radon, Greenhouse data: Aerodyne, Picarro, Underway, pCO2, Echosounders: EK60 (18, 38, 70, 120, 200, 333,KHz), Multibeam: EM122, EM710, and SBP120, XBT, USBL, SMPS (Scanning Mobility Particle Sizer Spectrometer-3936), heat flow probe, magnetometer and video. The archive for the IN2015_C01 EOV raw data is curated by the CSIRO Oceans and Atmosphere (O&A) Information and Data Centre (IDC) in Hobart, with a permanent archive at the CSIRO Data Access Portal (DAP, https://data.csiro.au/dap/), providing access to participants and processors of the data collected in the voyage. All voyage documentation is available electronically to MNF support via the local network. Access to voyage documentation for non-CSIRO participants can be made via DataLibrariansOAMNF@csiro.au.less

The lumped conceptual rainfall-runoff model, SIMHYD, with a Muskingum routing method is used to estimate daily runoff for 0.05° x 0.05° grid cells (~5 km x 5km) across the entire MDB. The adopted rain... morefall-runoff modelling method provides a consistent basis (that is automated and reproducible) for modelling historical runoff across the Murray-Darling Basin (MDB) and for assessing the potential impacts of climate change and development on future runoff. The historical climate scenario (Scenario A) is the baseline against which other scenarios are compared. It is based on observed climate data from 1895 to 2006. less
