The ARC Centre of Excellence for Climate Extremes (2017-2024) led pioneering research that deepened global understanding of climate extremes and their connections to climate change. With an emphasis on critical topics such as drought, marine heatwaves, and extreme weather, the Centre delivered influential research that informed policy and advanced climate modelling capabilities.

Beyond scientific achievements, the Centre’s impact endures through its development of national research infrastructure, its support for emerging climate scientists, and its commitment to a collaborative and innovative research culture that strengthens climate resilience efforts both in Australia and globally.
