Our Expertise

Catchment Flooding

Large storm systems bring periods of prolonged rainfall that cause rivers and creeks to rise, bursting their banks and inundating property and buildings, damaging infrastructure and isolating vulnerable communities​. 

Flash Flooding

Intense localised storms yield a deluge that can overwhelm drainage systems, resulting in urban torrents that threaten lives and livelihoods. They can arrive with little or no warning, and can impact areas far removed from river systems​.

Storm Tide

Cyclones, east coast lows and other intense weather systems can create ocean surges that inundate our coastal foreshore and estuaries. Coupled with the erosive power of the sea, storm tides can have a devastating impact on our coastal areas.

Tsunami

Generally caused by earthquakes or seabed landslides, tsunamis can sweep onto coastal lands and destroy communities. Understanding which areas are at risk is a key step in preparing for these natural disasters​.

Sea Level Rise

Climate change is affecting our oceans, and rising sea levels will threaten coastal communities. The projected impacts of climate change require careful planning to prepare, adapt and adjust to this changing environment
