New Perspective on Global Warming & Sea Level Rise: Modest Future Rise with Reduced Threat
2009
(Madhav L.),
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 poses little threat to coastal areas of the world either at present or in future.
