Description
The Sea Level Rise and Coastal Flooding Impacts Viewer: 1) Displays potential future sea levels; 2) Provides simulations of sea level rise at local landmarks; 3) Communicates the spatial uncertainty of mapped sea levels; 4) Models potential marsh migration due to sea level rise; 5) Overlays social and economic data onto potential sea level rise; and 6) Examines how tidal flooding will become more frequent with sea level rise. Being able to visualize potential impacts from sea level rise is a powerful teaching and planning tool, and the Sea Level Rise Viewer brings this capability to coastal communities. Work done as part of NOAA Digital Coast. Mapping completed for Pacific Islands. Working on pilot for flood frequency in Guam.
