East Australian Current Eric Oliver Abstract the tasman sea is a hot spot of ocean warming, that is linked to the increased poleward influence of the east australian current (eac) over recent decades. As it skirts along the east coast of australia, it carries a large amount of warm tropical water from the equator southward. this contributes to the conditions which allow the great barrier reef to thrive, keeping the east coast around 18 °c year round instead of dropping to 12 °c in the winter. Eastern tasmania lies at the boundary between two ocean currents (the east aus tralian current extension, or eac extension, and the zeehan current, zc) leading to the local marine climate exhibiting trends and variability from both boundary currents. The western tasman sea represents a global warming marine "hot spot," where the waters are warming at almost 4 times the global average rate, argued in the literature to be due to a "spin up" of the south pacific subtropical gyre and extension of the east australian current (eac).

In this study we quantify the long term trends, variability and predictability of marine heatwaves off eastern tasmania. we use a high resolution ocean model for tasmania's eastern continental shelf. The east australian current extension is projected to get stronger and warmer in the future. we seek to better understand coupled climate model projections for the tasman sea. To further investigate and test this paradigm, we analyse climate change simulations of tasman sea circulation and metrics on output from the ocean forecasting australia model for the 20th and. Marine heatwaves have occurred off tasmania’s east coast in the past decades and have included impacts on marine ecosystems. a major marine heatwave was observed off southeastern australia, including coastal tasmania, in the summer of 2015 16 (oliver et al., 2017a).
