Abstract

Fiftyโ€seven borehole temperature profiles from across Australia are analysed to reconstruct a ground surface temperature history for the past five centuries. The fiveโ€hundredโ€year reconstruction is characterised by a temperature increase of approximately 0.5โ€‰K, with most of the warming occurring in the 19th and 20th centuries. The 17th century was the coolest interval of the fiveโ€century reconstruction. Comparison of the geothermal reconstruction to the Australian annual surface air temperature time series in their period of overlap shows excellent agreement. The full geothermal reconstruction also agrees well with the lowโ€frequency component of dendroclimatic reconstructions from Tasmania and New Zealand. The warming of Australia over the past five centuries is only about half that experienced by the continents of the Northern Hemisphere in the same time interval.

## Abstract As climate change may modify the hydrological cycle significantly, understanding the impact on river flow is important because it affects longโ€term water resources planning. Here, we describe a highโ€resolution British assessment of changes in river flows in the 2050s under 11 different
