Abstract | This report on the 2008 Floods in Queensland: Charleville and Mackay forms part of a series of studies/reports commissioned by NCCARF that look at historical extreme weather events, their impacts and subsequent adaptations. These studies examine particular events – primarily extremes – and seek to explore prior vulnerabilities and resilience, the character and management of the event, subsequent adaptation, and the effects on present-day vulnerability. |
