TerraNova (Climate Change Adaptation Information Hub)
Body text
TerraNova is an interactive website and data repository, which allows adaptation researchers and decision-makers to discover, store, communicate and utilise climate change adaptation data, information and tools. The collection contains policies, publications, datasets and grey literature produced by practitioners and researchers in the climate adaptation space.
TerraNova was developed our of a project that is supported by the Australian National Data Service (ANDS) through the National Collaborative Research Infrastructure Strategy Program and the Education Investment Fund (EIF) Super Science Initiative, as well as through Griffith University and QCIF.

Adaptation Pathways and Opportunities for the Wet Tropics NRM Cluster region (Volumes 1 and 2)
This report synthesises current scientific knowledge in relation to adaptation to climate change impacts in the Wet Tropics NRM cluster region of north Queensland. The report identifies and discusses potential adaptation options for different sectors. This information is intended to inform NRM stakeholder engagement and adaptation planning processes. This is a two-volume report.
Climate Change Issues and Impacts in the Wet Tropics NRM Cluster Region
This report presents a synthesis of current scientific knowledge in relation to the likely impacts of climate change in the Wet Tropics cluster region of northern Australia. This report is the first major output of the NRM Fund research project in the region.

The development of the City of Greater Geelong Climate Change Adaptation Strategy was
identified as an outcome under the Sustainable Natural and Built Environment Strategic
Direction contained within the City Plan 2009-2014.The Adaptation Strategy is designed to
facilitate understanding of the risks of climate change within the City of Greater Geelong and
guide the establishment of processes that allow for robust and flexible decision making in
response to climate risks.
Victorian Climate Change Adaptation Plan
This first adaptation plan focuses on
government preparedness. The plan outlines actions being taken to manage risks and build climate resilience
across essential public infrastructure and services. The plan also recognises that managing risks to Victoria’s natural assets and natural resource-based industries is vital for the wellbeing of our communities and the health of our economy.

direct experience in developing or applying adaptation knowledge.
Climate Adaptation Manual for Local Government. Embedding resilience to climate change.
The key objective of this manual is to enable more and better adaptation activity for a ‘step change’ in how councils manage climate risk in Australia, through international and Australian case studies which describe:
• the steps or processes undertaken in the embedding activity
• transferable products (such as checklists) that can be utilised by other councils.
