| source_abstract | Global sea level is expected to change due to climatic and non-climatic factors. Here, sea level change for selected locations for the years 2050 and 2100 and RCP 4.5 and 8.5 scenarios are shown in units of cm above levels in the year 2000. The Kopp et al. (2014), or K14, framework combines multiple lines of information to construct probability distributions for key contributors to global mean sea level and relative sea level change. Factors in this model include: thermal expansion; regional ocean dynamics; glacier and ice sheet mass-balance; anthropogenic changes in land-waterstorage; and non-climatic effects such as glacio-isostatic adjustment, tectonics, and sediment compaction. |
