SEACI is a major research program of around 40 research projects investigating the causes and impacts of climate change and climate variability across south eastern Australia, home of the Murray-Darling Basin.
SEACI is addressing key research questions of importance to the SEACI partners through three linked research themes, each with a number of projects and sub-projects. In addition to the results generated within the themes by each project against its own milestones, the program itself aims to deliver a more holistic and better integrated understanding of climate change and climate variability across south eastern Australia.
The SEACI geographical study area incorporates the Murray-Darling Basin, the state of Victoria and southern South Australia, including the agricultural areas of Eyre Peninsula.
