Regional climate change snapshots

Summary of research

Climate change is having different impacts across NSW. These climate change snapshots were published by the NSW Government in 2014, and outline climate projections for different NSW regions in the near future (2020–2039) and far future (2060–2079). This information is based on NARCliM projections from 2014, and can help people understand how their region is likely to be impacted by climate change. For planners and decision makers, these snapshots can help inform decisions about future developments and policies to make sure they consider local climate change risks.
