Case Studies and Insights

Sea-level rise is one of the most direct and long-term consequences of climate change. It is primarily driven by the thermal expansion of seawater as it warms and by the melting of land...

This section presents research findings that help translate climate change scenarios and hazards into real-world socio-economic impacts for current and future populations. These insights are...

The data in the Biodiversity section provides insights into the processes affecting the future persistence of ecosystems and threatened species as they seek to adapt to past disturbances and...

Soil conditions are fundamental to the agricultural productivity and ecological balance of NSW. Projected climate change, characterised by increasing temperatures, changing precipitation...

The effects of climate change are placing increased pressure on biodiversity across the globe. Climate-driven effects on biodiversity are expected to be variable, with some local gains, but...

An NSW Government initiative, the Biodiversity Impacts and Adaptation Framework uses spatial data and process modelling to represent key drivers of biodiversity in real-world landscapes...
