Over the last century, Australia's climate has warmed by 1°C, and few regions have been unaffected (CSIRO and Bureau of Meteorology, 2018). Hotter average temperatures, hotter summers, longer heatwaves, more frequent bushfires and changes to rainfall intensity and seasonality have already had impacts across the country, and these trends are expected to continue. Rapid and ongoing climate change has the potential to affect all aspects of the wine industry, including vineyard performance, pest and disease incidence, wine quality and market competitiveness. In recognition of these challenges, Wine Australia funded a collaborative research project to consider the impact of climate variability and longer-term trends in climate on the wine industry.
