South Korea fired warning shots Monday morning after a North Korean patrol boat crossed the maritime border between the Koreas, the South Korean Defense Ministry said.

"I'm saddened for climate science itself, for services to Australia, and particularly for the younger scientists who are just starting to make their mark in this important area," said John Church, an oceanographer at CSIRO and a world-renowned expert on sea-level rise.

"Australia is ground zero for climate change," a CSIRO scientist said.
Climate scientists rebuked Marshall's understanding of climate change science and its importance.
But since CSIRO is a government-funded agency, the events may affect how Australia is perceived globally, said Erwin Jackson, deputy CEO of the Climate Institute. Source
