ACCESS-NRI is Australia’s National Earth System Simulator. We model past, present and future climate, weather and Earth-Systems to support research and decision making in Australia.

Our models simulate different future weather and climate scenarios by linking separate computer modules that represent different parts of the Earth System.

Our models are powerful tools for researchers. They provide weather and climate prediction at all time scales to support decision making in agriculture, water and emergency management, planning for public infrastructure and more.

ACCESS-NRI is a major collaborative undertaking between the Bureau of Meteorology, CSIRO and five Australian universities, in collaboration with national and international partners.
