Rural Australia has begun to experience climate change impacts - which will increase in future. Losses in farm yields, water supplies, property, community morale and family incomes have diverse health effects. We will study the separate and joint effects of climate change and associated extreme events (e.g., bushfires) on selected health outcomes. Using integrative methods, we will clarify the main influences on health risks, their future projections, and how best to intervene to lessen risks.

澳大利亚农村已经开始经历气候变化的影响--这种影响在未来还会增加。农业产量、供水、财产、社区士气和家庭收入的损失对健康有不同的影响。我们将研究气候变化和相关极端事件(例如，森林大火)对选定的健康结果的单独和联合影响。利用综合方法，我们将阐明对健康风险的主要影响，它们的未来预测，以及如何最好地进行干预以降低风险。
