Sea Level Rise Map

Sea level rise map: http://flood.firetree.net/?ll=52.8446,-8.9776&z=2&m=14
Interesting!

Very true - but it also shows Death Valley (in California) being under water, which probably WON'T happen since the nearest intrusion will be at the Salton Sea which is still a hundred miles away or so.
Whether you believe all of the nay-sayers about what's causing global warming or not, it IS a fact that when the sea levels rise there WILL be widespread problems with where we (as world residents) have built.
Thanks, Mike, for the post!

Hey - I'll be closer to the shore line. Maybe finally I'll get more chance to go sailing.

Excellent! A 6m rise means I can build a boat dock at the bottom of the garden.

I can also do that - although that would be a long-term expectation (at 130-something metres above currentsea level)

Thanks for the link Mike. Would that they used a more contrasting color like orange, so you don't have to be zoomed in to see prospective inundation. As you posted this centered in your area I was looking over in east England. Isn't some of that area under water half the time already? Also we have areas near us in California that are only dry because someone drained them, like Holland. Besides GCC other factors of our rivers and tidelands, the ecosystem (salmon), aging levees etc., are tending towards the end of these low lying dry areas. I think Death Valley will stay dry a while.

Yeah, an orange colour would be better. My area, Ennis, Co. Clare, Ireland will be badly hit. My house will be effected with a 7m rise. An amphib might be the solution

Mike - every forum member in Ireland will now be descending on your house looking to use your corner cubby and drinking yer tae - ah ye will, ye will, ye will!!!!
P.S. Have you not finished it yet?!

my god, New Yorck looks devastated at 14m.
Why is this map limited to fourteen meters? Because this would be the case when all the Ice has turned into water, or simply not to cause too much panic?
When I was a teen I had a comic book that told a story in a similar scenario, buildings turned into islands and the survivors were fighting for freshwater and so on. Never forgot about it because I thougt this would make an interesting set for game design...bubblebubblebubble

may I suggest you read the world's foremost scientist in sea level. Dr. Nils-Axel Mörner. he's written over hundreds of papers on the subject but he is ignored because he won't follow the sheepthink that is today's global warming crowd.

look at my location
http://flood.firetree.net/?ll=51.9446,4.3776&z=6&m=1
surprisingly, the harbour is the one place that hasn't flooded... oh and bytheway this is only 1m rise...good thing we've got dikes...
-
? It cuts off at about Bergen Norway... ?
-
We're fine until about 8 meters and then the wabter lebel buble glurb bab ob ob deeb...
