The Age links Australian drought to climate change
Of course it's climate change, you denier you. The Age subtly links the Australian drought to "global warming":
Business as usual at The Age.
Read it here.
While drought in Australia has traditionally been linked to El Nino events in the Pacific Ocean, researchers from the universities of NSW and Tasmania and the CSIRO have found that it is the Indian Ocean's cycle of warming and cooling that is to blame.
The water cycles of the Indian Ocean, which is experiencing unprecedented warming 2000 kilometres away, dictates the strength of the moisture-bearing winds that travel to Australia.

Here is some more on this story.
Not the same report as the Age - less alarmist than them.
This is potentially a good and useful finding, especially if they stay away from the MMCC/AGW zealots. But with BOM involved I don't think so!

It has farmers (the NFF president anyway) applauding "a research breakthrough by Australian scientists linking temperatures in the Indian Ocean and rainfall in the southeastern states of Australia."
All to do with "variable and irregular cycle of warming and cooling of ocean water dictates whether moisture-bearing winds are carried across the southern half of Australia".
The paper has been accepted for publication in the journal Geophysical Review Letters.
This one is right up my alley - can't wait.
