After a weird summer of floods and heatwaves, scientists explain why weather extremes are 'on steroids' https://t.co/5K2Uyr7dPi via @ABCaustralia

Our new paper is online! We have quantified how groundwater responds to the changing climate across Australia and explored why some aquifers are more sensitive and others are less. BIG THANKS to my supervisors @TPeterson_water @benhenley and Meenakshi. 🔗 https://t.co/WL084luICk

Lalani's first PhD paper 😀 looking at non-stationarity in extreme rainfalls across Australia across durations and frequencies relevant to IFDs. The shorter and the more extreme the rainfall the greater the increase! https://t.co/MZru8UySat
