The double trade-off between adaptation and mitigation for sea level rise: an application of FUND (2007, unknown): “In this scenario, the sea rises by 66 cm (cf. Church and Gregory 2001).”
Twentieth-century global-mean sea-level rise: is the whole greater than the sum of the parts? (2013, methodology): “Marzeion et al. (2012b) calculated glacier mass change throughout the twentieth century from monthly observed near-surface air temperature and precipitation gridded at 0.”
Economic impacts of climate change in Europe: sea-level rise (2012, background): “…GCMs are also compared to the low and high IPCC Third Assessment Report (TAR) sea-level rise scenarios which encompass a wide range of uncertainty in sea-level rise projections, but explicitly excluding uncertainties due to ice sheet instability and melting in Antarctica (Church et al. 2001).”
Mass tree mortality leads to mangrove peat collapse at Bay Islands, Honduras after Hurricane Mitch (2003, methodology): “Parameter Value Source Sea-level rise 0.15 cm year−1 (Church et al. 2001) Deep subsidence rate 0.17 cm/year−1 Emery & Aubrey (1991) Initial wetland elevation 37.5 cm above MLLW This study Mineral input 385 g/cm2 year−1 McKee & McGinnis (2003) Root standing crop 15 000 g dw m2 Chen & Twilley (1999)…”
Modelling Antarctic and Greenland volume changes during the 20th and 21st centuries forced by GCM time slice integrations (2004, methodology): “As present-day summer temperatures are presently too low to cause any significant runoff (e.g. Table 11.6 in Church et al., 2001), it can be expected that surface melting will continue to be of little importance, even under greenhouse warming conditions during the 21st century.”
The role of the oceans in climate (2003, background): “Under one typical scenario, Church et al. (2001) estimate the thermal expansion over 1990 to 2100 to be in the range 0.1 to 0.4 m, compared with the simulated total sea-level rise of 0.1 to 0.8 m.”
The impact of sea level rise on developing countries: a comparative analysis (2007, unknown): “6 Adam (1995), Dennis et al. (1995), French et al. (1995), Han et al. (1995), and Warrick et al. (1996).”
Overview of ICESat's Laser Measurements of Polar Ice, Atmosphere, Ocean, and Land (2002, methodology): “Conventional methods of studying ice sheet mass balance examine the difference between the mass input and output terms, but significant errors in these quantities have limited determinations to about 25% (Warrick et al., 1996), which is equivalent to 2 mm/year of sea level change.”
Contribution of thermal expansion to present-day sea-level change revisited (2005, background): “For example, re-estimating the climate-related contributions to the 20th century sea-level rise, the last IPCC report (Church et al., 2001) gives a 0.5 mm/year modelbased thermal expansion contribution.”
Raster modelling of coastal flooding from sea‐level rise (2008, background): “Sea level is projected to increase between 0.09 and 0.88 m by the year 2100 due to climate change, thus representing a significant global-scale threat to coastal environments (Church et al. 2001, Nichols 2004).”
Interannual variations of the mass balance of the Antarctica and Greenland ice sheets from GRACE (2006, background): “…model projections of future sea level rise is rooted, in part, in our poor knowledge of the present behaviour of the Antarctic ice sheet (e.g., Church et al., 2001), and (2) sea level changes can have anthropogenic origins, and better ice sheet models could improve the fidelity with which…”
Antarctic subglacial conditions inferred from a hybrid ice sheet/ice stream model (2010, result): “Here, our model predicts a total melt water volume of 435 Gt year−1, a figure comparable to observed estimates of 540±218 Gt year−1 (Church et al., 2001), although probably an underestimate.”
