What two centuries of Perth storm records tell us about future climate risk
Matched: climate
Researchers have analysed over 200 years of storm records from Perth, Western Australia, to better understand natural climate variability before industrial fossil fuel use. The historical data helps distinguish natural fluctuations from human-caused climate change, and reveals long-term rainfall and storm trends. Findings suggest the region faces increasing climate risk, with implications for future water security and disaster planning.
