Global LiDAR land elevation data reveal greatest sea-level rise vulnerability in the tropics
A Hooijer, R Vernimmen - Nature communications, 2021 - nature.com
Coastal flood risk assessments require accurate land elevation data. Those to date existed
only for limited parts of the world, which has resulted in high uncertainty in projections of …
