ARC Centre of Excellence for Climate Extremes
Melissa Hart's Company Details
The Australian Research Council Centre of Excellence for Climate Extremes (CLEX) is a major seven-year initiative that brings together five leading universities and a suite of national and international partner organisations. The Centre was established in 2017 with extensive investment from the Australian Research Council, the University of New South Wales, affiliated universities and partner organisations. Climate extremes are high impact events that seriously affect natural and human systems.The goal of CLEX is, together with our national and international partners, to discover the process-level understanding that explains the behavior of climate extremes that directly affect Australian natural and economic systems. With this increased evidence-based understanding as our foundation, we will improve our capability to predict these extremes, and as a result inform strategies to build increased national resilience against climate extremes and minimise risk to the Australian environment, society, and economy.Led by the University of New South Wales, the Centre builds from the ARC Centre of Excellence for Climate System Science and includes a core group of researchers from the University of New South Wales, Monash University, the Australian National University, The University of Melbourne, and the University of Tasmania.Australian Partner Organisations:Bureau of Meteorology National Computational Infrastructure NSW Office of Environment and HeritageRisk FrontiersCSIRO
