We are working to better understand the impact of climate change on the environment, including our landscapes and ecosystems. Our research is helping to halt the decline in Australia's biodiversity while supporting the sustainable use of our natural resources.

Marine climate responses Marine resources, biodiversity and industries

Climate change poses a threat to fisheries and marine biodiversity. CSIRO's Marine Climate Impacts and Adaptation research stream is studying how climate change will affect Australia’s oceans, and developing adaptation options to respond to these challenges.

Oceans and climate change Oceans and coasts

Just as our changing climate is influencing changes on the land, climate change is also having an effect beneath the waves of the world’s oceans and coastal waterways.

Managing-water-resources

Our research aims to help Australia better manage its river basins and groundwater resources, and improve social, economic and environmental benefits from water resources management. We also apply our expertise internationally to help other countries with water resource management.
