By combining it with sea-level-rise projections, Shirzaei's group estimated that up to 518,000 more Americans would be exposed to high tide flooding by 2050 in up to 288,000 more properties ...
This map suggests the places in Miami-Dade County that could see population growth (in red) or decline (in blue) over the next few decades as sea level-rise induced flooding begins to affect ...
In sharp contrast, the period between 14,300 and 11,100 years ago, which includes the Younger Dryas interval, was an interval of reduced sea level rise at about 6.0–9.9 mm/yr. Meltwater pulse 1C was centered at 8,000 years ago and produced a rise of 6.5 m in less than 140 years, such that sea levels 5000 years ago were around 3m lower than ...
Miami has been described as "ground zero" for climate change and sea level rise." [90] The Miami-Dade County Office of Resilience has implemented climate programs and a Climate Action Plan, [91] [92] and there is a Sea Level Rise Committee. [93] Protecting the water supply and the Biscayne Aquifer is a priority. [23] [24] [25]
In Miami, sea-level rise and worsening hurricanes are creating a perfect storm. Streets regularly flood during “king tides,” and saltwater intrusion is threatening the city’s drinking water ...
