An interdisciplinary team of researchers has projected that if the rate of global CO2 emissions continues to increase and reaches a high emission scenario, sea levels would as a result very likely ...

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), a body of the United Nations, has long been at the forefront of climate science, regularly producing state-of-the-science assessments and possible ...

A 30-year-old forecast of sea-level rise has proved to be remarkably accurate, according to a Tulane University geologist. What is even more amazing is that the forecast three decades ago was done ...

New Jersey is likely to see between 2.2 and 3.8 feet of sea-level rise by 2100 if the current level of global carbon emissions continue, but seas could rise by as much as 4.5 feet if ice-sheet melt ...

Global sea levels have not continued to rise at the rates predicted by many scientists — and there is no evidence that climate change has contributed to any such acceleration, a new first-of-its-kind ...

New geological data has given more insight into the rate and magnitude of global sea level rise following the last ice age, about 11,700 years ago. This information is of great importance to ...

Norfolk, Virginia, currently has the fastest rising sea level on the East Coast, while Wilmington is projected to see a 1.77-foot rise by 2050. Increased flooding, even on sunny days, is impacting ...
