(2021) considered temporal effects of urban development to estimate future global urban growth under IPCC's projected climate scenarios. Using remote sensing observations, higher probabilities were assigned to new developed urban pixels in the neighborhood to influence changes from non-urban land to ...
The Maldives, a set of 1192 low-lying islands in the Indian Ocean that is in danger of going underwater, is likewise planning similar floating cities. Whereas most of Busan is 98 feet above sea level and so will survive a projected four-foot rise by the end of this century, the average...

Our results are consistent with reports by the nonprofit organization Climate Central, which predicts that 4.4 million acres of land, 650,000 properties, and $34B in real estate value along the U.S. coasts are projected to be below tidal area boundaries over the subsequent 30 years [28]. ...
Furthermore, it is projected that the population density in these areas will increase by around 25% by 2050 [3]. The significance of these areas is linked to their multiple uses and opportunities due to their valuable ecosystem goods and services [4]. However, due to the high population ...
