More extreme weather ahead
Our fourth biennial State of the Climate Report was released last week with the Bureau of Meteorology. It updates our detailed climate measurements and includes new findings. As in earlier reports, our observations show trends continuing with more extremely hot days and severe fire seasons to come. The 2016 report also shows for the first time that warming now extends to at least 2,000 metres below the surface of our oceans, and draws on new modelling to study the connection between global warming with individual extreme events. Catch up on the latest findings in our State of the Climate Report 2016.
