      <subfield code="a">Australia's climate is undergoing significant changes, with future conditions expected to bring more intense and frequent extreme weather events. Historical data is no longer a reliable guide for future risks due to shifts in the duration, intensity, and location of climate hazards. Vulnerable populations, especially Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities, are at greater risk due to underlying social and economic disadvantages. Climate impacts will vary across regions, with coastal communities facing rising sea levels and increased coastal hazards, northern areas experiencing more severe tropical cyclones, and the entire country seeing more frequent heatwaves, floods, and bushfires. These changes will strain public health systems, particularly affecting people with pre-existing conditions, the elderly, and children. Some communities will be disproportionately affected, potentially leading to internal migration and disruption of local economies and social networks. Critical infrastructure will also face increased pressure from heightened demand during extreme events, underscoring the need for robust adaptation and resilience strategies</subfield>
