Thirty percent of Americanslive in a community near a coastline. And while those people don't have the power to unilaterally solve the underlying problem of climate change, some communities are now grappling with how to adapt to sea level rise by constructing new defenses, restoring natural defen...

Considering that Earth has already warmed 2 degrees Fahrenheit since the late 1800s, we know that substantial sea-level rise is already baked in, regardless of whether we stop global warming. Scientists just don't know exactly how long it will take to see the rise or how fast it will occu...
Potential impacts of global sea-level rise on Canadian coasts. Assesses the future impact of sea-level rise that may result from global climate change as placed within the context of sea-level changes on Canadian coast... Shaw,John,Taylor,... - 《Canadian Geographer》 被引量: 151发表: 1998...
climate changeCalifornia's coastal observations and global model projections indicate that California's open coast and estuaries will experience rising sea levels over the next century. During the last several decades, the upward historical trends, quantified from a small set of California tide gages,...
Bacteria and viruses can survive for millions of years in cold environments. Global warming increases the possibility they may emerge and conceivably affect people, which is a great threat to global life security. Existential threat and range change ...
Globalclimate changeis expected to cause rising temperatures, higher sea level, and more powerful storms. The rates ofglobal climate changeare expected to be much greater in the next century than they have been in the past. Rising sea temperatures will impact fisheries and aquaculture that provide...
