Research datasets, articles and data services on bushfire risk, behaviour, preparedness and community resilience across Australia. Resources examine how communities respond to fire events, how risk is measured and mapped, and how policy can reduce future bushfire impact.

Resources: 2

Research examining how climate change is altering the frequency, intensity and distribution of natural hazards across Australia. Resources cover future hazard projections, compounding risk scenarios, adaptation pathways and the implications for emergency management and infrastructure investment.

Resources: 2

Research on coastal erosion, storm surge, sea level rise and their compounding effects on Australian communities and infrastructure. Datasets support land use planning, coastal management policy and emergency response in areas facing increasing exposure to marine hazards.

Resources: 0

Research outputs covering tropical cyclone tracking, wind hazard modelling, structural vulnerability and community preparedness in northern and coastal Australia. Includes datasets from observational networks, post-event studies and risk assessments relevant to emergency management and infrastructure planning.

Resources: 2

Research outputs measuring the capacity of Australian communities to prepare for, absorb and recover from natural hazard events. Spanning social science, emergency management and public policy, resources include indices, datasets and articles supporting planners and policymakers.

Resources: 2

Research on drought frequency, severity, early warning indicators and the social and economic impacts on Australian communities and industries. Resources cover rural resilience, water security, agricultural adaptation and policy responses to prolonged rainfall deficits.

Resources: 1

Research outputs on seismic hazard, ground motion modelling, fault mapping and earthquake risk across Australia. Includes datasets supporting infrastructure resilience assessments, building code development and emergency preparedness in earthquake-prone regions.

Resources: 1

Datasets and research on the economic costs of natural hazard events in Australia, including direct damage, business disruption and recovery expenditure. Resources support insurers, governments and industry in understanding financial exposure and designing cost-effective risk reduction strategies.

Resources: 0

Research and resources on community education, public awareness campaigns and hazard literacy programs relating to natural hazards in Australia. Resources address how information is communicated before, during and after events, and what enables communities to act on hazard warnings effectively.

Resources: 0

Research supporting the preparation, response and recovery functions of Australian emergency management agencies. Resources cover incident management, interoperability, volunteer capacity, public warning systems and the policy frameworks that govern emergency operations at all levels of government.
