Approximate time horizons of decision‐making in the agricultural sector, shown using a rough logarithmic scale. Very few decisions in agriculture have a time horizon longer than about 30 years.

The Community Earth System Model (CESM) has been applied to study a wide range of outcomes, with over half of published studies since 2004 focused on relevant physical systems; but applications to managed, societal, and ecological systems have been rapidly growing.

Outline of the regions that experience major rainfall trends in Australia. Northwest Australia (NWA; 10°–25°S, 110°–135°E), southeast Queensland (SEQ; 22°–30.5°S, east of 150.5°E), southwest of Western Australia (SWWA; southwest of the line joining 30°S, 115°E, and 35°S, 120°E), southeast Australia (SEA; 33°–44°S, 135°–154°E). The current article reviews the recent scientific literature on rainfall in the pre‐instrumental and instrumental period over Australia, including the underlying mechanisms (e.g., impact of anthropogenic changes, and natural variability) of the regional and seasonal variations and future projections. We discuss progress in detection and attribution and the future avenues in this field.

Courts now play an important role in policy debates about climate change. Reviewing the literature on climate change litigation we highlight key emerging, interdisciplinary themes including the role of science, time, place and human rights claims in climate change litigation and explore the relationship between litigation and climate governance.
