1 1 Response of Australian Temperature Extremes to Climate Variability and Change Regional Climate Research Section NCAR Earth System Laboratory NCAR is Sponsored by NSF and this work is partially supported by the Willis Research Network, the DOE Research Program to Secure Energy for America and NSF EASM Grants 1048841 and 1048829 Greg Holland Collaboration with Cindy Bruyere Mari Jones and Abby Jaye Holland CSU Workshop 0114

2 Working Hypothesis: o Global temperature extremes change slowly- if at all – under GW o Maxima from advection increase substantially. The Record Australian Summer 2013 Holland CSU Workshop 0114 2 Summary

3 Holland CSU Workshop 0114 3 Stations Used Giles Sydney Mel Alice

4 Monash Informal Talk 1213 4 In Situ and Advective Extremes In Situ

5 Monash Informal Talk 1213 5 Both Can Occur Together Advective In Situ (Mari Jones)

6 Holland CSU Workshop 0114 6 Seasonal: Desert In Situ Temperatures Extremes bumping up against the maximum possible Skewed distribution develops

7 Holland CSU Workshop 0114 7 Giles Maxima

8 Holland CSU Workshop 0114 8 Climate Change: In Situ Temperatures Variable, but marked increase in hot days and no change in extremes.

9 Analysis Bdy Conditions, including SST, Interactive Land Holland CSU Workshop 0114 9 WRF Simulations WRF Vs Observed Max Temperatures After 17 days integration

15 Holland CSU Workshop 0114 15

16 Holland CSU Workshop 0114 16 Trend 1970-2011 >35 o C Maximum Temperature (Bureau of Meteorology 2013) In Situ Advective

17 Global extreme temperatures change slowly, if at all, with GW For In Situ temperature extremes, PDF skews to more hot temperatures Advected temperature records increase substantially Holland CSU Workshop 0114 17 Summary
