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…
