Abstract:

The focus of this product is to identify and review the potential impacts of future sea-level rise based on present scientific understanding. To do so, this product evaluates several aspects of sea-level rise impacts to the natural environment and examines the impact to human land development along the coast. In addition, the product addresses the connection between sea-level rise impacts and current adaptation strategies, and assesses the role of the existing coastal management policies in identifying and responding to potential challenges.
