Research Project
Full description Estimating flood hazard predictions under climate change projections from NARClim 1.5 and 2. These projections will be estimated using the methodology published by Callaghan and Hughes (2022) [Callaghan, D. P. and Hughes, M. G., 2022. Assessing flood hazard changes using climate model forcing. Nat. Hazards Earth Syst. Sci., 22(8): 2459-2472.]. The project will include Gwydir River, Macquarie River, Murrumbidgee River, Lake Illawarra Catchment and Wagga Wagga settlement. The project will extend methodology developed by Callaghan and Hughes (2022) to includes advice on handling coastal catchments, urban catchments and projection quality for various resolutions and density of hydraulic structures.
