Soil microbial community responses to climate extremes: resistance, resilience and transitions to alternative states

open access: yesPhilosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. Biological Sciences, 2020
A major challenge for advancing our understanding of the functional role of soil microbial communities is to link changes in their structure and function under climate change.

Observational evidence of compensatory influences of deforestation on downwind precipitation in Brazilian breadbaskets

open access: yesnpj Climate and Atmospheric Science
Stable and predictable wet-season rainfall is crucial for soybean production in Brazil. However, climate and land-use changes, particularly Amazon deforestation, have increased rainfall variability in the region in recent decades.

What is the probability that a drought will break in Australia?

open access: yesWeather and Climate Extremes, 2023
Large scale modes of climate variability influence rainfall and soil moisture in southeastern Australia, and extended dry conditions have been associated with a lack of climate mode phases conducive to wetter conditions.

Enhancing Low‐Temperature Performance of Sodium‐Ion Batteries via Anion‐Solvent Interactions

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
DOL is introduced into electrolytes as a co‐solvent, increasing slat solubility, ion conductivity, and the de‐solvent process, and forming an anion‐rich solvent shell due to its high interaction with anion. With the above virtues, the batteries using this electrolyte exhibit excellent cycling stability at low temperatures. Abstract Sodium‐ion batteries

How well do climate modes explain precipitation variability?

open access: yesnpj Climate and Atmospheric Science
Large-scale modes of climate variability, such as the El Niño-Southern Oscillation, North Atlantic Oscillation, and Indian Ocean Dipole, show significant regional correlations with seasonal weather conditions, and are routinely forecast by meteorological

Interactive influence of ENSO and IOD on contiguous heatwaves in Australia

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2021
Australian heatwaves have a significant impact on society. Most previous studies focus on understanding them in terms of frequency, duration, intensity, and timing.

High impact compound events in Australia

open access: yesWeather and Climate Extremes, 2022
Many natural disasters in Australia occur as a result of meteorological drivers occurring in combination. These Compound Events (CEs) amplify risk to socio-economic and ecological systems relative to single meteorological events. We undertake a bivariate
