Climate variability and climate change –
Theoretical probability distributions for temperatures
The climate is usually defined in terms of a statistical description (mean and variability) of variables such as temperature and precipitation over a period

GLOBAL WARMING (1)
Rise in the average temperature
Global mean surface-temperature change from 1880 to 2017, relative to the 1951–1980 mean
Under global warming, we can still experience global cooling

GLOBAL WARMING (2)
Global warming from 2001 using a range of climate models –assuming no mitigation

THE PROBLEM OF NATURAL VARIABILITY (1)
Climate is impacted upon by a number of scales of variability
Seasonal
Multi-year (El Nino, La Nina)
Multi-decadal (c. 0.4ºC oscillation in North Atlantic sea surface temperature)
c. 0.8ºCc. 0.4ºC
c. 50 years c. 80 years

CHALLENGES OF POPULATION AND URBAN GROWTH TRENDS
• Economic growth –extraction of catchment resources
• Urbanization –• Increased water
demand • Waste – water
pollution
• Spatial development footprint – Change in land use and land cover associated service provision

More water required for irrigation, but
Limited by temperature

• Climate change is an added risk/burden NOT the cause of water problems
• Social-economic and environmental conditions are the cause and result of disaster risk

Managing Impacts of Climate Change
Where we are now: What can’t be done?
What is missing in terms of the ideal situation?
The GAP to be filled between the ideal
situation and where we are now
Capacity Needs
Ideal or desired situation: the system
(individual, organisational and
institutional) functioning at full capacity
