'Hottest on record' not natural variation

David Karoly told Radio National listeners today that it was almost impossible the Australia’s hottest year on record was caused by natural variation.

The University of Melbourne’s Professor from the School of Earth Sciences, who is also a member of the ARC Centre of Excellence for Climate System Science, said the results were single clearest marker that humans are influencing the weather we have had to date.

Five separate research papers released today by the ARC Centre of Excellence for Climate System Science indicate that human-caused global warming was almost certainly cause for 2013 being Australia's hottest year on record.

The centre is the largest Australian university research group working on climate, with representation from ANU, Monash and the universities of NSW, Melbourne and Tasmania.
