Show moreThis joint publication between International and US CLIVAR begins with highlights of recent scientific progress on sea level rise research from the 2017 WCRP/IOC Sea Level Conference, and includes new estimates of historical change, evaluation of our ability to simulate it, analysis of extreme events and surface waves, and examples of the impacts. Highlights from the WCRP/IOC Sea Level Conference (Stammer et al.) A reconciled estimate of 20th century global mean sea level rise (Dangendorf and Marcos) Evaluating climate model simulations of 20th century sea level rise (Meyssignac et al.) Changes in extreme sea levels (Marcos and Woodworth) ENSO teleconnections across the Pacific (Stopa and Merrifield) New York City’s evolving flood risk from hurricanes and sea level rise (Garner et al.) Global distribution of projected dynamic ocean sea level changes using multiple climate models and economic assessment of sea level rise (Yokoki et al.) Show less
