Tailored seasonal climate modelling
We develop tailored programs, projects & workshops that integrate the latest knowledge in meteorology & climatology – with knowledge in water resources, agriculture & farming, producers & management systems.
Welcome to Speedbird Climate
We specialise in integrating weather and climate forecasting (including our own models) with important data on riverflow, dam in-fill rates and agricultural production models.
This means that the forecast output – for months or years ahead but especially for the coming season – can be either simple rainfall or temperature probability values relevant for that season, but also probability values of streamflow or dam in-fill rates in megalitres, or crop production in kg/ha.
In weather-related work and analysis we specialise in extreme weather attribution studies, including those weather events that impact on energy, mining, and water resource sectors. Additionally we have wide experience in meeting requirements for legal reports and investigations.
This type of specialist work can be for a small part of Queensland, Australia, or anywhere in the world where we have data available.

Long-term climate trends
We have core expertise in weather and climate data recovery, including from centuries-old logbooks and shipping data that would have otherwise remained hidden in museums.
With these data we can reconstruct many long-term weather data that are important in better understanding long-term climate trends and for inclusion in our weather and climate models.

Client Testimonials
I’ve had the pleasure to work with Roger on two significant water infrastructure projects in Queensland during the past 15 years, Wyaralong Dam and Rookwood Weir. In both instances Roger has provided the project team timely and accurate advice related to the medium to longer term seasonal climate and weather and associated streamflow probabilities. This information has proven to be highly valuable and has been incorporated into the construction planning and delivery phase of the projects. The Team at Speedbird Climate are always willing to assist the Project Teams in whatever capacity they are able to. Hamish Rookwood Weir Project, QLD
