报告摘要：The East Australian Current (EAC) is Australia’s strongest and most important current and is also changing rapidly as our planet warms. Here we synthesise the current knowledge on observed trends, extremes and their drivers in the EAC system, including the coastal consequences. The EAC and its anticyclonic eddies are moving further south, and transporting more warm water poleward. As a consequence, ocean heat content is rising at two-three times the global average. Coastal and offshore warming is non-uniform with latitude associated with an increase in sea surface height and eddy activity. Coastal temperatures along southeastern Australia, have risen at among the fastest rates on earth (0.5oC per decade). At the extreme end, marine heatwaves (one of the major challenges facing marine ecosystems) are increasing in frequency and marine cold spells are decreasing. In the EAC system, trends and extremes are linked to dynamical regimes. For example, in the EAC jet transport is slowing down, and marine heatwaves are driven by air sea heat fluxes, but in the EAC Southern Extension, transport is increasing and marine heatwaves are advection driven associated with eddies. We are also seeing increasing impacts of extreme freshwater events, which we are only now beginning to quantify. This talk provides an observational and modelling framework for exploring the impacts of climate change in other boundary current systems which are also changing rapidly.
