It showed that 2.7 billion NZ dollars of roading, three waters, and building infrastructure is at risk from as little as a 0.5-meter rise in sea levels. The value of at-risk infrastructure ramped up sharply at each increment of sea level rise, with the data showing 14.1 billion NZ dollars...
The NZ SeaRise program, a five-year research program funded by the government, brings together 30 local and international experts from universities and research institutes to improve projections of sea-level rise in New Zealand. On Monday, the program released location-specific sea-level rise projec...
which implicitly implies that the closure depth remains constant30. Sea-level rise is known to change the closure depth through its effects on the wave climate and will
2Climate Change, Sea-Level Rise (SLR) and Adverse Consequences Loss of territory and of maritime zones have recently attracted attention because of the aggravation of SLR, a phenomenon the existence of which is widely supported by scientific evidence. An International Panel on Climate Change (IPCC...
This includes predictions of 20m sea level rise by 2100, an ice free Arctic summer prior to 2020, that children won’t know what snow is within a few years, and countless other ridiculous predictions that the IPCC has never made. I’ll even repudiate the IPCC when they make mistakes like...
13600 -11600 years ago we had some type of event(s) that ushered in about 400 feet of sea level rise and completely removed an ice sheet on average 2 miles thick, the size of the Arctic circle… And you people are talking about diminishing sea ice extents from highly suspicious satellite...
Critical issues in the Australian context include the implications of possible sea-level rise at the upper end of the IPCC projections of about 0.8 m by 2100; the threat of recurring severe droughts and the drying trends in major ... W Steffen - 《Department of Climate Change》 被引量: 15...
Wave-driven flooding is a serious hazard on coral reef-fringed coastlines that will be exacerbated by global sea-level rise. Despite the global awareness of atoll island vulnerability, little is known about the physical processes that control wave induced flooding on reef environments. To resolve th...
NZ SeaRise (2022) used the InSAR-derived VLM estimates, which were calibrated using nearby GNSS data by Hamling et al. (2022), to generate model predictions for future relative sea-level rise rates for every 2 km around New Zealand's coast. For Pāuatahanui, the projections use the ...
