Each Degree of Warming Will Raise Sea Levels 7.5 Feet
2013-07-16 03:06:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Environment News Service: Global sea levels will rise about 2.3 meters, or 7.5 feet, for every degree Celsius (1.8 degrees Fahrenheit) that the planet warms over the next several thousand years, finds new research that combines all the major causes of sea level rise. This international study is one of the first to combine analyses of the four major contributors to potential sea level rise into a collective estimate, and compare it with evidence of past sea-level responses to global temperature changes. Homes in West...

Sea Levels Set for Continuing Rise in a Warming World

Climate News Network: Sea level rise may be slow to show its hand but once it really starts, researchers say, it will keep going for centuries, with baleful effects. For each degree by which the Earth warms, they believe, sea levels will probably rise by over 2 meters (6.5 feet). Some recent research has suggested that the future rate of sea level rise may not be as fast as scientists had expected. But a study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, "The Multi-Millennial Sea-Level Commitment...
Sea levels may rise 2.3 metres per degree of global warming, report says
2013-07-15 17:58:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Reuters: Sea levels could rise by 2.3 metres for each degree Celsius that global temperatures increase and they will remain high for centuries to come, according to a new study by the leading climate research institute, released on Monday. Anders Levermann said his study for the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research was the first to examine evidence from climate history and combine it with computer simulations of contributing factors to long-term sea-level increases: thermal expansion of oceans,...
