Can the reverse happen i.e. Detailed Assessors give low scores but General Assessors rate it highly for some reason?
Can we learn from the recent past to predict future climate change impacts using machine learning? We have created a new benchmark dataset designed to help answer this question, and you can take part in the challenge: www.kaggle.com/competitions...
Oh no! I thought I had it on the weekend but tested negative...
Hoping to make this fab-looking meeting in June. Keen to (re)connect with the overseas compound events community.
Bravo!
to celebrate a recent *short format* paper featuring ONE HUNDRED AND FORTY panels across EIGHTEEN figures, I present what will definitely be simultaneously my most accurate and most niche post ever
It's neat! I'll definitely try it out next time!
How do the colours look??
I had a great time at my first CLEX workshop a few weeks back in Brisbane - met some wonderful people for the first time/first time IRL. Here I am pretending to be an art savant during my lightning lecture...
High impact events are often compound events and need to be integrated in climate risk stress testing frameworks

I've just looked up the definition of a policy, and I still don't know if I agree with you or not... Either way, there's plenty I can list on my app. I doubt reviewers will take issue with me mixing up policy/plan/act!
South Australia's electricity mix over the past 24 hours: 106% solar and wind.
Average power spot price: A$2.44/MWh (the average across Australia: A$230.15/MWh)
Powering Australia is the one policy I already had ;)
That's great - thanks! I have been looking for policy names specifically for my DECRA application. I'd never thought about how news articles etc. never really *name* policies, just describe them.
In Tassie they tend to be called "heat pumps" because you used the heating functionality a lot more than the cooling :)
Okay so this is a pretty big deal
(Australian Gov to underwrite the energy transition basically - 32GW of RE/storage out to 2030)

Do you know if this policy has a new name? Or is it still the Renewable Energy Target?
This was the worst way to start the week. A house two doors down from me sold a few weeks ago - complete knock-down job, $1.85 million.
Congrats! So well deserved!

Although for much of the globe, its the drying of fuels that leads to more burning (red shading here) - noisy signal though using this 19-year satellite data set.
Our analysis from last year shows the same thing - a wet year prior to the fire season typically leads to higher burned areas in northern Australia (red shading in this image). From www.nature.com/articles/s41...
It highlights the role of La Niña-driven rains that increase the fuel load, which then dries out. This year has the highest area burned since 2011, which was also just after La Niña.
This is a great visual dive into the extent of the bushfires so far across Australia's north 👇 www.theguardian.com/news/datablo...
Apparently the difference is whether you pour the espresso on top of the water, or the other way around?
As an aside, how do people make sure their images are the perfect size for this app?
This work was a very enjoyable first foray into the energy space. It is intended to provide a bit of a foundation for understanding the relationships between solar and wind power resource, weather patterns and the larger climate state. More to come…
We also looked at the kinds of weather patterns associated with these droughts.
