Towards regional projections of twenty-first century sea-level change based on IPCC SRES scenarios
Description: Sea-level change is often considered to be globally uniform in sea-level projections. However, local relative sea-level (RSL) change can deviate substantially from the global mean. In this study researchers present maps of twenty-first century local RSL change estimates based on an ensemble of coupled climate model simulations for three emission scenarios. The results indicate many regions will experience RSL changes that differ substantially from the global mean. [Source: Climate Dynamics]
