This project aims to uncover the key links in Australia's weather-climate connection by identifying the role weather features play in influencing the slowly varying climate and how changes in one might affect changes in the other. Better describing the two-way connection between weather and climate through an innovative combination of research techniques usually applied to only one of weather or climate will allow for a more insightful assessment of climate model quality. This assessment will support the identification of the most reliable climate models and, by using them, reduce uncertainties in future predictions. Improved predictions of climate in turn will enable better decision making in all sectors of society.

该项目旨在通过确定天气特征在影响缓慢变化的气候方面所起的作用以及一个方面的变化如何影响另一个方面的变化，揭示澳大利亚天气-气候联系中的关键环节。通过创新性地将通常只适用于天气或气候之一的研究技术结合起来，更好地描述天气和气候之间的双向联系，将有助于对气候模型质量进行更深入的评估。这一评估将有助于确定最可靠的气候模型，并通过使用这些模型减少未来预测的不确定性。改善气候预测反过来将使社会各部门能够更好地决策。
