Climate change in New South Wales Part 1 : past climate variability and projected changes in average climate

This report presents results of a project undertaken by CSIRO for the New South Wales Greenhouse Office to assess past climate variability and projected changes in average climate. Information is drawn from the global findings of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), and independent research undertaken by CSIRO on regionally-specific changes in temperature, rainfall, potential evaporation and sea level.
