A global reanalysis of storm surges and extreme sea levels (2016, neutral): “In recent years, coastal ﬂood risk has increased due to population, economic growth 8 and land subsidence 9,10 .”
Effect of the processing methodology on satellite altimetry-based global mean sea level rise over the Jason-1 operating period (2014, background): “GMSL is currently rising in response to global warming (e.g., Bindoff 2007) and will continue to rise in the future decades/centuries with possibly highly negative impacts in a number of low altitude coastal areas (Nicholls and Cazenave 2010).”
Securing blue wealth: The need for a special sustainable development goal for the ocean and coasts (2014, background): “) and storm surges caused by climate change and a rise in sea-level with its associated biophysical and socio-economic consequences impose significant pressures on the coastal zone, especially on low-lying coastal areas, deltas, and small islands [39], [40], [41], [42].”
Future Coastal Population Growth and Exposure to Sea-Level Rise and Coastal Flooding - A Global Assessment (2015, background): “It must be noted that the actual sea-level rise may vary considerably between regions and scenarios beyond the 2030/2060 narratives [23, 24].”
The IPCC AR5 guidance note on consistent treatment of uncertainties: a common approach across the working groups (2011, methodology): “It is expected that use of this approach will also be made in the Working Group I AR5 assessment, e.g., for sea level rise projections whose upper end is much less well constrained than the lower end (Nicholls and Cazenave 2010).”
Genetic Advances in Adapting Rice to a Rapidly Changing Climate (2012, background): “On the other hand, coast lines of South and South-east Asia, Africa, Caribbean Islands, and the Indian and Pacific Ocean small island groups are identified as the most vulnerable areas of the world because of sea level rise and salt water inundation (Nicholls and Cazenave 2010).”
Projecting twenty-first century regional sea-level changes (2014, background): “Estimating future sea-level change [SLC] is a pressing topic in climate research, with direct socio-economic consequences (Nicholls and Cazenave 2010).”
