Life histories are the trajectories organisms follow as they develop, grow, reproduce and age; they are shaped by evolution and limited by the physical and biological environment. Recent breakthroughs by the CI allow the computation of life histories in any sequence of climatic environments, with demonstrated potential to gain new insights into the past, present and future responses of species to climate variability and change. This project aims to apply the new methods to understand how species' life histories have adapted to Australia's unique physical conditions and predict how they will respond to future conditions. It will simultaneously lay the foundations for a long-term, open-access research program on species' climate responses.

生命史是生物体发育、生长、繁殖和衰老所遵循的轨迹；它们是由进化形成的，并受到物理和生物环境的限制。 CI 最近取得的突破允许计算任何气候环境序列中的生命史，并显示出有可能获得有关物种对气候变率和变化的过去、现在和未来反应的新见解。该项目旨在应用新方法来了解物种的生活史如何适应澳大利亚独特的物理条件，并预测它们将如何应对未来的条件。它将同时为物种气候响应的长期、开放研究计划奠定基础。
