Sea-level rise exponentially increases coastal flood frequency
Sea-level rise will radically redefine the coastline of the 21(st) century. For many coastal regions, projections of global sea-level rise by the year 2100 (e.g., 0.5–2 meters) are comparable in magnitude to today’s extreme but short-lived increases in water level due to storms. Thus, the 21(st) cen...
