The coastal regions of northern New South Wales and south eastern Queensland are the most flood-prone regions of the country. The Gold Coast and Broadwater region of south-east Queensland contains large areas of developed flood plain spanning several catchments, including the Nerang, Coomera, Pimpama and Albert/Logan, that are at risk of flooding during extreme rainfall events. These regions are also subject to high population growth.<br /><br />Recently, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) released its “Summary for Policy Makers” (IPCC, 2007) based on the Working Group 1 Fourth Assessment Report. That summary states, “It is very likely that hot extremes, heat waves, and heavy precipitation events will continue to become more frequent.” Consequently, . . .

There are two studies into the extreme rainfall over Eastern Australia in 2010-2012 period. One "couldn’t find much evidence that the human influence on the climate had played a significant role", the other using a slightly different methodology found "a small influence from man-made climate change on above-average rainfall that fell in March 2012".<br /><br />As the following summary explains "while some recent studies have clearly detected substantial human influences on extreme temperatures across Australia, including the record summer temperature of 2012-13 and the record temperature for the last 12 months, the ability to detect the human-induced effects on extreme precipitation events over our continent remains elusive."<br /><br />http://theconversation.com/the-blame-for-rain-is-mainly-done-in-vain-17896<br />MikeHnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2313427464944392482.post-41462942810075259212013-09-06T11:05:15.620+10:002013-09-06T11:05:15.620+10:00Thanks for your blog.
