Global climate models do not allow us to sufficiently understand the regional detail of climate change at local scales. Climate Futures specialises in downscaling of global climate models to give fine-scale regional climate projections.
This summary report explains how fine scale climate modelling is carried out, in the context of the Australian state of Tasmania.
