Climate Scientists Give New Prediction of Sea Level Change
2013-07-15 23:10:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Voice of America: In a new report, climate change scientists predict that for each one degree Celsius of increase in global temperature, sea levels will rise 2.3 meters. They say their estimate may be accurate for as long as the next 2,000 years. Earlier studies have predicted various changes in sea level as the climate warms, but a team from the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research says its analysis is the first to consider historic climate data, along with computer simulations of factors contributing...
Sea Levels Set for Continuing Rise in a Warming World
2013-07-15 22:30:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
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...

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,...
