A person presents a scientific talk. There is prominent text below the picture that reads "ACCESS Community Workshop 2025: Draft program now available!". There is a green banner in the top right corner that reads "Melbourne 8-12 September".
Photograph of two people looking intently at a computer. There is text below the photo that reads "ACCESS Training Day 2025 Registrations open!" and a banner in the top left corner that reads "Melbourne 9 September".
Two people point at a scientific poster. There is prominent text below the picture that reads "ACCESS Community Workshop 2025: Poster submissions close 20 July!". There is a green banner in the top left corner that reads "Melbourne 8-12 September".

Lachlan Whyborn presenting on recent developments in the CABLE model . You can see the audience and his first slide.
Dr Chermelle Engel with an image of the high resolution ACCESS rAM3 model behind her talking about the technical hurdles of developing this model in Gadi
Andrew Kiss presenting at AMOS 2025 with an image of the ocean model ACCESS-OM3 behind him.
A figure of the ACCESS-rAM3 model and an image if a simulation of the Sydney region created using the model. Also a quote saying: “The value of ACCESS-rAM3 is that it is an adaptable regional model that allows researchers to run experiments and simulations at any resolution that we are interested in, which is incredibly useful to understand processes at the scale that have an impact on society and environment.” by Dr Mathew Lipson, 21st Century Weather, UNSW Sydney
Image of a visualisation showing Antarctica, a timer and the words: ACCESS Community Visualisation Webinar Series, Exploring the historical sea-ice around Antarctic, 21 March 2025 11:00 - 12:00 pm (AEDT)
The background is a visualisation of the ESM1.5 model. There is also a quote: “We are very excited about this update of the model, as it will make our outputs more compact, easier to spin to an equilibrium and we don’t have to rebuild the model each time we run a new simulation, which is very time consuming" by Dr David Hutchinson from UNSW Sydney and a Menu graphic that contains some of the code used on this new feature. Finally the ACCESS-NRI logo with the words: Australia's climate simulator
An image of Earth with the Sun behind it and a quote: “We worked closely with members of the paleoclimate community to co-design this ”time dial” and make the ESM1.5 model easier to use, saving researchers a lot of time” Spencer Wong, ACCESS-NRI. It also includes the logo and the words Australia's climate simulator
A picture of planet Earth in the background with the words: One planet. Shared ocean, shared atmosphere, shared land, shared climate & shared effort to understand it for everyone's future
This is an advertisement for a communications officer position at Australia's climate simulator closing on the 10 March 2025, includes our logo and a visualisation of the Earth produced using our models.
