摘要: The change in sea level at any location represents the combination of global sea-level (e.g., due warming) and local/regional to subsidence or uplift. Because wide variations latter component, rate future rise its implications must be assessed separately for each coastal zone. To plan a meaningful response strategy, risk assessment shoreline regression based on local empirical data, preferably as an integral part zone management activities.
