Surging Seas Stakes Rising: Year 2100
This map shows local projected sea levels for the year 2100 under different carbon pollution scenarios, and is based on peer-reviewed research that incorporates potential impacts of Antarctic ice dynamics on sea levels.
Surging Seas Extreme Scenario 2100
This map shows projected U.S. sea levels for the year 2100 under the “extreme” sea level rise scenario published in NOAA Technical Report NOS CO-OPS 083 (January 2017), which corresponds to rapid ice loss in West Antarctica this century. Search for any coastal location in the U.S. to see the extreme scenario projections.
Surging Seas Extreme Scenario 2100 (3D)
This tool allows you to overlay a Surging Seas sea level rise KML layer in Google Earth for web to visualize the projected U.S. sea levels for the year 2100 under the “extreme” sea level rise scenario published in NOAA Technical Report NOS CO-OPS 083 (January 2017).
Surging Seas 2ºC Warming and Sea Level Rise
This map shows U.S. land below 20 feet (6 meters) above the high tide line –– this is the minimum amount of sea level rise that is projected from 2 degrees Celsius (3.6°F) of global warming (Dutton et al. 2015).
