Fig. 3: Coastal sea level rise (SLR). Location map showing color coding of coastal regions (a). Five-ESM ensemble mean regional coastal SLR differences of: G6solar–SSP585 (b); G6sulfur–SSP585 (c); G6solar–SSP245 (d); and G6sulfur–SSP245 (e) during 2080–2099. Vertical solid...
I found their paper particularly interesting because it gets at the question of sea level rise from a combination of ocean altimetry and density (temperature + salinity) data. This kind of measurement and calculation has not really been possible -- not at this level of detail -- until quite ...
Intercepting 1% of the global rainfall of a one year period and storing it by artificial recharge in the subsurface of semi-arid areas could lead to a drop in sea level of less than 15 mm. Artificial recharge for this purpose is not the solution to the problem of sea level rise. "Geo...
Sea level rise (SLR) will increase adaptation needs along low-lying coasts worldwide. Despite centuries of experience with coastal risk, knowledge about the effectiveness and feasibility of societal adaptation on the scale required in a warmer world rema
Simulated future sea-level rise due to glacier melt based on regionally and seasonally re- solved temperature changes. Nature 391, 474-476.Gregory, J. M. and H. Oerlemans: 1998, `Simulated future sea-level rise due to glacier melt based on regionally and seasonally resolved temperature change...
The highest sea level rise predictions were calculated using recent modeling data from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. The other calculation uses older IPCC modeling data. Both calculations incorporated land subsidence projections. Relative sea level rise incorporates the effects of land ...
a calculation and analysis have been made in this paper of the impacts of sea level rise of 0.5—1.0 m in the Changjiang Estuary in the next century on the probabilities of hourly chlorinity of more than 100×10~(-6), 200×10~(-6) and 250×10~(-6) during the dry season st Wuson...
For example, a 20 cm rise in sea level will increase extreme water levels by 50 cm (Lavery S and Donovan B, 2005; Lowe JA and Gregory JM, 2005). According to this conservative calculation, in the three time points (2030, 2050 and 2100) storm will increase 50 cm with the background...
