The Healey administration is proposing a strategy to protect the Massachusetts coastline from rising seas and intensifying storms with a new draft plan that calls for a study of evacuation ...

Researchers from the University of Durham say that the world needs to stay within just 1°C of the pre-industrial average to avoid a catastrophic sea level rise. With current warming levels ...

Most of the islands—including the capital Malé—stand about 3.5 feet above sea level; climate scientists forecast they will be inundated by the century’s end. Hulhumalé, the man-made rescue ...

“It should absolutely be our target, but in no sense will it slow or stop sea level rise from melting ice sheets.” The world is currently on course for roughly 2.9°C of warming by 210 ...

The world’s ice sheets are on course for runaway melting, leading to multiple feet of sea level rise and “catastrophic” migration away from coastlines, even if the world pulls off the ...

Research led by Durham University, UK, suggests the target should instead be closer to 1°C to avoid significant losses from the polar ice sheets and prevent a further acceleration in sea level rise.

Sea level rise is primarily driven by two factors: the melting of ice sheets and glaciers, and the thermal expansion of seawater as it warms. The Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets are particularly ...
