Sea Level Rise Mapping. This means the water expands as it warms. Mapping Sea Level Rise.
The data and maps in this tool illustrate the scale of potential flooding not the exact location and do not account for erosion subsidence or future construction. This website shows a dynamic map of areas in the Greater Wellington region that will be affected by sea level rise. To help support our communities prepare for climate change we have launched a fully integrated sea level rise SLR and storm surge map viewer as a separate suite to accompany the climate change maps that have already been around for a while.
NOAAs Sea Level Rise map viewer gives users a way to visualize community-level impacts from coastal flooding or sea level rise up to 10 feet above average high tides.
More precise data gathered from satellite radar measurements reveal an accelerating rise of 75 cm 30 in from 1993 to 2017. The analysis behind the maps accounts only for warming caused by carbon dioxide a. Amount and Extent of Ocean Water. These are the four warming levels for which these maps visualize projections of committed sea level rise.
