Global mean sea-level change has increased from a few centimetres per century over recent
millennia to a few tens of centimetres per century in recent decades. This tenfold increase in …

In addition to their being vital components of mid-to high-latitude coastal ecosystems, salt
marshes contain 0.1% of global sequestered terrestrial carbon. Their sustainability is now …

We assess the relationship between temperature and global sea-level (GSL) variability over
the Common Era through a statistical metaanalysis of proxy relative sea-level …

This chapter considers changes in global mean sea level, regional sea level, sea level
extremes, and waves. Confidence in projections of global mean sea level rise has increased …

We present new sea-level reconstructions for the past 2100 y based on salt-marsh
sedimentary sequences from the US Atlantic coast. The data from North Carolina reveal four …

There have been significant changes in sea level over the past two million years, and a
complete understanding of natural cycles of change as well as anthropogenic effects is …

Vegetated coastal ecosystems, including tidal marshes, mangroves and seagrass meadows,
are being increasingly assessed in terms of their potential for carbon dioxide sequestration …

We use a physically plausible four parameter linear response equation to relate 2,000 years
of global temperatures and sea level. We estimate likelihood distributions of equation …

While current rates of sea level rise and associated coastal flooding in the New York City
region appear to be manageable by stakeholders responsible for communications, energy …

Tidal wetlands experiencing increased rates of sea-level rise (SLR) must increase rates of
soil elevation gain to avoid permanent conversion to open water. The maximal rate of SLR …
