Cenozoic sea-level and cryospheric evolution from deep-sea geochemical and continental margin records
Using Pacific benthic foraminiferal δ18O and Mg/Ca records, we derive a Cenozoic (66 Ma)
global mean sea level (GMSL) estimate that records evolution from an ice-free Early Eocene …

[HTML][HTML] New elevation data triple estimates of global vulnerability to sea-level rise and coastal flooding
Most estimates of global mean sea-level rise this century fall below 2 m. This quantity is
comparable to the positive vertical bias of the principle digital elevation model (DEM) used …

The causes of sea-level rise since 1900
The rate of global-mean sea-level rise since 1900 has varied over time, but the contributing
factors are still poorly understood. Previous assessments found that the summed …

Global probabilistic projections of extreme sea levels show intensification of coastal flood hazard
Global warming is expected to drive increasing extreme sea levels (ESLs) and flood risk
along the world's coastlines. In this work we present probabilistic projections of ESLs for the …
