Abstract NARCliM 1.0 climate projections were released in 2014. These projections are provided at a 10-km grid cell resolution across south eastern Australia and 50-km grid cell resolution across the whole of Australia. Information is available as: One historical projection (1990 to 2009) and Two future projections (near future 2020 to 2039 and far future 2060 to 2079) NARCliM 1.0 is built from: Four global climate models (MIROC, ECHAM, CCCMA and CSIRO Mk3.0) and 3 regional climate models to produce 12 regional projection models; The 2010 CMIP3 dataset (this collection was gathered by the IPCC https://www.ipcc.ch/report/ar4/syr/); the 2010 IPCC’s A2 emissions scenario (the most likely scenario at that time) as outlined in https://www.ipcc.ch/report/emissions-scenarios/?idp=0; Re-analysis using the NCEP: 1950 to 2009 dataset. Detailed information on NARCliM 1.0 can be found in https://climatechange.environment.nsw.gov.au/Climate-projections-for-NSW/About-NARCliM

Abstract NARCliM 1.5 climate projections were released in 2020. These projections build on from the NARCliM 1.0 ‘near future’ and ‘far future’ projections to create continuous climate projections for two future greenhouse gas concentration scenarios. These projections are provided at a 10-km grid cell resolution across south eastern Australia and 50km grid cell resolution across the whole of Australia. Information is available as: One historical projection (1951 to 2005) & Continuous future projections (1950 to 2100). NARCliM 1.5 is built from: Three global climate models (ACCESS1.0, ACCESS1.3, CanESM2) and two regional climate models to produce six regional projection models per emissions scenario; The 2014 CMIP5 dataset (this collection was gathered by the IPCC); The IPCC’s revised emissions scenarios (RCP4.5 and RCP8.5 – known as representative concentration pathways); Re-analysis using the ERA-Interim data set: 1979 to 2013 dataset. NARCLiM 1.5 compliments NARCLiM 1.0 by simulating a hotter, drier future than in NARCLiM 1.0. It has the added advantage of providing continuous climate projections and an additional emissions scenario.
