Estimates of Future Sea Level Rise
Accurate monitoring of atmospheric carbon dioxide began 25 years ago. Since then, sufficient scientific evidence has been developed for two National Academy of Sciences review panels to conclude that sometime in the next century, atmospheric concentrations of C02 will almost certainly double and raise the atmosphere's mean surface temperature by at least 1.5C (2.7 F) and possibly as much as 4.5...

متن کاملA geological perspective on potential future sea-level rise
During ice-age cycles, continental ice volume kept pace with slow, multi-millennial scale, changes in climate forcing. Today, rapid greenhouse gas (GHG) increases have outpaced ice-volume responses, likely committing us to > 9 m of long-term sea-level rise (SLR). We portray a context of naturally precedented SLR from geological evidence, for comparison with historical observations and future pr...
متن کاملNew Perspective on Global Warming & Sea Level Rise: Modest Future Rise with Reduced Threat
Sea Level Rise (SLR) in response to the present and future warming of the earth’s surface is probably the most contentious issue being debated at present. This brief commentary surveys the most recent literature on ongoing SLR and on the major factors contributing to future rise. It is concluded that the best guess value of SLR for the next 100 years is a relatively modest 23 cm +/− 5 cm which ...
متن کاملA semi-empirical approach to projecting future sea-level rise.
A semi-empirical relation is presented that connects global sea-level rise to global mean surface temperature. It is proposed that, for time scales relevant to anthropogenic warming, the rate of sea-level rise is roughly proportional to the magnitude of warming above the temperatures of the pre-Industrial Age. This holds to good approximation for temperature and sea-level changes during the 20t...
