Climate change, vulnerability and adaptation for South West Western Australia from 1975... - 0 views

  •  
    South West Western Australia (SWWA) has not escaped and is acknowledged as a highly vulnerable region to the impacts of climate change. Its temperature is already 0.8°C higher than in 1910; however, the most notable impact is a 10 to 15 per cent reduction in rainfall since 1975, which has had a major impact on water supplies and industries such as agriculture.
