Notes

Abstract:
This report follows the implications of sea-level rise on human settlement in Florida, while specifically following the Critical Lands & Waters Identification Project (CLIP), a statewide Natural Resources Spatial Database that prioritizes biodiversity, landscapes, and water. Additionally, CLIP identifies Florida's "green infrastructure", which links the concepts of ecosystem function, biodiversity, and the health of human communities. This report contains several maps indicating projected growth and other scenarios for areas affected by sea level rise. ( English )
