The last report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), published in 2021, predicted 1 to 2 metres of sea level rise over many centuries if the rise in temperature was limited to ...

Sea level rise will become unmanageable at just 1.5C of global heating and lead to “catastrophic inland migration”, the scientists behind a new study have warned.

The Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets are on course for rapid retreat, even collapse, leading to multiple feet of sea level rise even if the world pulls off the miraculous and keeps global ...

Sea level rise is projected to accelerate throughout the 21st century, even if global warming is limited to 1.5 °C. Ice sheets and ocean thermal expansion are major contributors, ...

Even if the world sustains today’s level of warming, at 1.2 degrees Celsius (2.2 degrees Fahrenheit), it could still trigger rapid ice sheet retreat and catastrophic sea level rise, the ...

Earth’s major climate goal is too warm for the polar ice sheets, study says. If Earth stays at its current levels of warming — below policymakers’ goal of 1.5 degrees Celsius — polar ice ...

Climate-induced sea level rise will see hundreds of millions of people forced to flee inland from coastal communities, even if the rise in the global temperature stays within the Paris Climate ...

A slow-moving crisis of sinking land and rising water is playing out along America's coastline. In the past 100 years, sea levels have climbed about a foot or more in some U.S. cities – 11 ...

Pensacola faced the highest sea level rise, at a rate of 3.709 millimeters a year. Fort Myers and St Petersburg, both along the Gulf Coast, were not much better, seeing rises of 3.706 millimeters.
