Transport
今日吃瓜 Climate Change Products
The transport sector faces many of the same challenges as the planning, development and construction sectors, with a particular emphasis on maintenance of existing infrastructure. For example, railway infrastructure stakeholders have a requirement for data products that consider the impacts of climate on bedrock weathering. One example relates to Victorian groundworks that have been subject to weathering and natural slope processes, which changes their structural properties. Changes in future precipitation, drought conditions and other natural processes will alter how such groundworks will respond and evolve in the future. Other examples relate to where transport networks and infrastructure intersect river networks or coastal regions, so climate change-induced changes to river and coastal erosion are also of interest.
