63 63 * **Forewarned is Forearmed** **(FWFA): **This national project will deliver direct value to farmers by providing forecasts of extremes and equipping them with the information and tools to be forewarned and prepared. The project outputs aim to decrease the impacts of extreme climate events on farm, and on business profit. The Bureau, working with several research partners, will develop and deliver forecasts of the likelihood of climate extremes on multi-week and seasonal timescales — beyond the 7-day weather forecast. The products will be focused on heat, cold and rainfall extremes, for example, "//What is the likelihood of having a decile 10 rainfall this spring?//"; "//What is the chance of having a heatwave in the week after next?//"; "//What is the chance that the upcoming month will be extremely hot?//"; "//What is the likelihood of having more heavy rainfall events than usual in the upcoming fortnight?//". This will provide farmers with the first ever forecasts of climate extremes in the weeks to seasons ahead.

69 69 * **Northern Australia Climate Program (NACP): **NACP will deliver innovative research, development and extension outcomes to improve the capacity of the red meat industry to manage drought and climate risk across northern Australia. Drought is one of the biggest challenges graziers face and has a significant impact on agricultural output, productivity and on-farm income. One of the three sub-projects is focused on improving the basic science and operational skill of seasonal, sub-seasonal (multi-week) and multi-year climate forecasting systems of direct relevance to the northern Australia red meat industry.

75 75 * **Seasonal prediction of marine heatwaves: **This collaborative project between CSIRO and the Bureau of Meteorology seeks to develop an experimental seasonal marine heatwave (MHW) forecast product(s) for Australian waters, based on [[ACCESS-S>>url:http://www.bom.gov.au/climate/ahead/about/model/access.shtml]], and conduct the underpinning research and verification required. These prototype MHW products would be based on ACCESS-S, supported by scientific publications and developed in collaboration with stakeholders. The expectation would be future inclusion into the existing operational [[seasonal ocean outlook service>>url:http://www.bom.gov.au/oceanography/oceantemp/sst-outlook-map.shtml]] for Australia, expanding the current user base and adding value to the existing service. For more information, see [[here>>url:https://research.csiro.au/cor/climate-impacts-adaptation/marine-heatwaves/dynamical-forecasting-of-marine-heatwaves//||rel="__blank"]].

71 +* **Climate and Oceans Support Program in the Pacific (COSPPac): **The primary aim of COSPPac to enhance the capacity of Pacific Islands to manage and mitigate the impacts of climate variability and tidal events. We work with stakeholders in the Islands to build tools that can forecast and report on climate, tides and the ocean. As part of this project, multi-week tropical cyclone outlooks for the North and South Pacific, and multiweek rainfall, tmax and tmin outlooks (and verification) are regularly provided in National Meteorological Service bulletins for a large number of Pacific Island countries. Outlooks can be accessed here: [[http:~~/~~/www.bom.gov.au/climate/pacific/outlooks/>>url:http://www.bom.gov.au/climate/pacific/outlooks/]]

74 +* **Australian Climate Service (ACS)**: The focus of this new large multi-agency project is to help customers better understand the threats posed by a changing climate and natural hazards, to limit their impacts now and in the future. Through this project, prototype multiweek to seasonal forecast tools will be developed for prediction of coastal hazards, including flooding and inundation. ACS will begin by directly supporting a newly enhanced Emergency Management Australia (EMA)and the Government's new National Recovery and Resilience Agency (NRRA).
