|a Future sea level rise caused by climate change would disrupt
the physical processes, economic activities, and social systems
in coastal regions. Based on a hypothetical global sea level
increase of one to six meters, we developed GIS methods to
assess and visualize the global impacts of potential inundation
using the best available global datasets. After susceptible
areas were delineated, we estimated that the size of the areas
is between 1.055 (one meter) to 2.193 million km2 (six meters).
Population in the susceptible areas was estimated to range
from 108 (one meter) to 431 million (six meters) people.
Among the seven land-cover types in the susceptible areas,
forest and grassland account for more than 60 percent for all
the increments of sea level rise. A suite of interactive visualization
products was also developed to understand and
communicate the ramifications of potential sea level rise. |
