A flood damage allowance framework for coastal protection with deep uncertainty in sea-level rise
D. J. Rasmussen, Maya K. Buchanan, Robert E. Kopp +1
Future projections of Antarctic ice sheet (AIS) mass loss remain characterized by deep uncertainty (i.e., behavior is not well understood or widely agreed upon by experts). This co…
Coastal flood implications of 1.5 °C, 2.0 °C, and 2.5 °C temperature stabilization targets in the 21st and 22nd century
D. J. Rasmussen, Klaus Bittermann, Maya K. Buchanan +4
Sea-level rise (SLR) is magnifying the frequency and severity of coastal flooding. The rate and amount of global mean sea-level (GMSL) rise is a function of the trajectory of globa…
Evolving understanding of Antarctic ice-sheet physics and ambiguity in probabilistic sea-level projections
Robert E. Kopp, Robert M. DeConto, Daniel A. Bader +6
Mechanisms such as ice-shelf hydrofracturing and ice-cliff collapse may rapidly increase discharge from marine-based ice sheets. Here, we link a probabilistic framework for sea-lev…
Allowances for evolving coastal flood risk under uncertain local sea-level rise
Maya K. Buchanan, Robert E. Kopp, Michael Oppenheimer +1
Sea-level rise (SLR) causes estimates of flood risk made under the assumption of stationary mean sea level to be biased low. However, adjustments to flood return levels made assumi…
Global and local sea level during the Last Interglacial: A probabilistic assessment
Robert E. Kopp, Frederik J. Simons, Adam C. Maloof +1
The Last Interglacial (LIG) stage, with polar temperatures likely 3-5 C warmer than today, serves as a partial analogue for low-end future warming scenarios. Based upon a small set…
