It is essential for Australia's long-term planning and security that the effects of global warming on our nation's water resources and coastlines are quantified. Sea level variations projected into the future vary around Australia and have large uncertainties, yet the impacts have substantial social and financial ramifications for our community. Australia hasn't yet quantified accurately its critical water resources nor how they are changing. This proposal will address both these issues, providing for the first time valuable and accurate information for planning appropriate strategies to mitigate the impact of sea level rise and water storage on the Australian society.

量化全球变暖对我国水资源和海岸线的影响，对澳大利亚的长期规划和安全至关重要。预计未来的海平面变化在澳大利亚各地各不相同，具有很大的不确定性，但其影响对我们的社区产生了重大的社会和财政影响。澳大利亚还没有准确地量化其关键的水资源，也没有量化它们是如何变化的。该提案将解决这两个问题，首次为规划适当战略提供宝贵和准确的信息，以减轻海平面上升和蓄水对澳大利亚社会的影响。
