Setback zones can effectively reduce exposure to sea-level rise in Europe

Scientific Reports, 2023
Coastal space is one of the most valuable assets of the EU coastal member states, as the coast is highly urbanized. Hard engineering has traditionally been employed to protect communities in coastal lowlands, but as this alternative becomes less ...

Sea-Level Rise by 2100 [PDF]

Science, 2013
In his News and Analysis piece reporting on the newly released fifth assessment report (AR5) by Working Group I (WGI) of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) (“A Stronger IPCC Report,” 4 October, p. [23][1]), R. A. Kerr highlights three fundamental conclusions about climate change that were assessed with equal or greater confidence than

Exploring spatial feedbacks between adaptation policies and internal migration patterns due to sea-level rise

Nature Communications, 2023
Climate change-induced sea-level rise will lead to an increase in internal migration, whose intensity and spatial patterns will depend on the amount of sea-level rise; future socioeconomic development; and adaptation strategies pursued to reduce exposure

Regional economic analysis of flood defence heights at the German Baltic Sea coast: A multi-method cost-benefit approach for flood prevention

Climate Risk Management, 2021
Mean and extreme sea-level uncertainties, as well as uncertainty about future flood exposure, hinder the risk-based optimisation of flood protection investments.

Human-Induced Hydrological Connectivity: Impacts of Footpaths on Beach Wrack Transport in a Frequently Visited Baltic Coastal Wetland

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Coastal wetlands depend on vertical accretion to keep up with sea level rise in cases where embankment restricts accommodation space and landward migration.

Global Mean Sea Level Rise Inferred From Ocean Salinity and Temperature Changes

Geophysical Research Letters, 2023
Barystatic sea level rise (SLR) caused by the addition of freshwater to the ocean from melting ice can in principle be recorded by a reduction in seawater salinity, but detection of this signal has been hindered by sparse data coverage and the small ...

The transient sensitivity of sea level rise [PDF]

Ocean Science, 2021
Recent assessments from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) imply that global mean sea level is unlikely to rise more than about 1.1 m within this century but will increase further beyond 2100.
