Funded Activity Summary

The equable climate conundrum: the role of the global ocean in multiple climate regimes. This study will enhance Australia's global engagement in the research of past climates and global warming, and lead to a better understanding of the dynamics and modelling of warm climate states. This will contribute significantly to climate research in Australia and could lead to a better knowledge of the formation of the ancient deposits that we mine today. Furthermore, the study of past warm climates tells us something about current global warming, as both involve increased levels of carbon in the atmosphere. The impact of climate change on Australia is likely to be large. This study of past warm climates will improve our understanding of climate change physics and help quantify the risks of climate change posed to Australia.
