They say effect on Australia is less rain, increase temperature. Also more sever storms (storms are nature way of transfering heat.) I think the remaining rainforests and Alpine regions are under most threat.
Having saying this, I do know Australia has surived 1,000 year drought in last 50, 000 years. Most likely occured between the first and second wave of Aboriginal migiraiting to Australia.
Australia has had a harsh climate for a least 40, 000 years when the megafauna begun die out.
