(Phys.org)—An international team of researchers has run multiple global climate computer simulations multiple times and has used the simulation results to estimate the local impact of rising sea levels on coastal cities around the globe. In their paper published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, the group outlines the first serious attempt to account for multiple factors in making predictions about sea level rise amounts around the world.
