Altimeter accuracy requirements for detecting changes in sea level rise [PDF]

, 2012
All nations with a maritime border are concerned about changes in sea level, with an increase in sea level leading to flooding of coastal areas, damage to property, salinification of fresh water aquifers and destruction of valuable agricultural land ...

The Impact of Uncertainties in Ice Sheet Dynamics on Sea-Level Allowances at Tide Gauge Locations

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2017
Sea level is projected to rise in the coming centuries as a result of a changing climate. One of the major uncertainties is the projected contribution of the ice sheets in Greenland and Antarctica to sea-level rise (SLR).

A High‐End Estimate of Sea Level Rise for Practitioners

Earth's Future, 2022
Sea level rise (SLR) is a long‐lasting consequence of climate change because global anthropogenic warming takes centuries to millennia to equilibrate for the deep ocean and ice sheets. SLR projections based on climate models support policy analysis, risk

Recent Developments in Sea-Level Rise and Its Related Geological Disasters Mitigation: A Review

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022
With the rapid development of urbanization around the world, the sea-level-rise problem is gaining more and more attention in the 21st century. Sea-level rise is the result of a combination of climate-related factors, structural factors and human ...

Coastal Wetland Resilience, Accelerated Sea‐Level Rise, and the Importance of Timescale

AGU Advances, 2021
Recent studies have produced conflicting results as to whether coastal wetlands can keep up with present‐day and future sea‐level rise. The stratigraphic record shows that threshold rates for coastal wetland submergence or retreat are lower than what ...

Sea level rise [PDF]

, 1990
This Section addresses three questions: Has global-mean sea level been rising during the last 100 years? What are the causal factors that could explain a past rise in sea level? And what increases in sea level can be expected in the future?

Exploring high-end scenarios for local sea level rise to develop flood protection strategies for a low-lying delta-the Netherlands as an example [PDF]

, 2011
Sea level rise, especially combined with possible changes in storm surges and increased river discharge resulting from climate change, poses a major threat in low-lying river deltas.
