The Analysis of Infrastructure Asset Susceptibility Using High Resolution Climate Projection Modeling
Climate change is a feature of the 21st century. Making sensible choices on how we can adapt to climate hinges on understanding what changes are likely, where they are likely, and when they will start to have a significant impact. pitt&sherry, a Tasmanian based consultancy, in partnership with t...

Climate change is a feature of the 21st century. Making sensible choices on how we can adapt to climate hinges on understanding what changes are likely, where they are likely, and when they will start to have a significant impact. pitt&sherry, a Tasmanian based consultancy, in partnership with the Antarctic Climate and Ecosystems Cooperative Research Centre (ACE CRC), with facilitated inputs from a range of Tasmanian infrastructure managers and planners have developed a climate susceptibility, analysis and communication tool. The spatial software based decision support tool assists owners, managers and planners to use customized cutting edge climate projections to assess the susceptibility of their infrastructure to projected changes in climate at a local scale. The Climate Futures for Tasmania project completed by ACE CRC generated sophisticated climate projections incorporating Tasmanias geography and its effect on local climate.
