What can Antarctic ice tell us about Australian weather?
Australia is systematically underestimating its drought and flood risk because weather records do not capture the full extent of rainfall variability, according to our new research.
Carly Tozer came to the Antarctic Climate and Ecosystems CRC from the University of Newcastle, where she completed her PhD in hydroclimatology. Her research has focused on the identification of global and local-scale atmospheric and oceanic processes, including those stemming from the Southern Ocean, that drive hydroclimatic variability in Australia.
Carly will be working with the Antarctic Variability of the Past 2000 Years project team on the reconstruction of Australian drought records from Antarctic ice cores.
