temperature and global-mean thermosteric sea level rise under different greenhouse gas representation concentration pathway (RCP) scenarios. The sea level projections also include simulations of ocean dynamic sea level change from the CMIP5 ensemble, which arise from local variations in ocean density

, leading to an alternate intermediate stable state with less mass in the ice sheet 3 . This will cause irreversible sea-level rise. Figure 1. Changes in the mass of the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets from the satellite gravity mission GRACE. Source: NASA GRACE, David Wiese, JPL Antarctica

that the real-world response lies outside these ranges and this likelihood cannot be accurately quantified. In particular, we cannot rule out substantial additional sea level rise associated primarily with dynamic ice discharge from the West Antarctic Ice Sheet (see section 3.2.1). We recommend

of the water, so that the same amount of water takes up more space. These two effects are the primary reason for the observed global sea level rise. My team is working on state-of-the-art projections of sea level rise for the UK coastline, which will continue for centuries into the future

Identify available climate services for the Caribbean on long-term climate change timescales. 3. Tailor a new Caribbean Sea level rise tool to better inform future decision-making 4. Co-develop

by a combination of growth in demand and contamination from flooding and sea level rise. Coasts • Sea level rise along the West African coast will severely impact coastal settlements where one third of the West African population lives. • Water quality and availability from coastal aquifers may be affected

, covering both its land and marine environments. The land projections include updated Probabilistic (maximum spatial resolution of 25km) scenarios for key climate variables to support assessments of uncertainty. The Marine projections include updated projections of time-average sea level rise around

spells. 3.3.4 By the end of the 21 st century, lying snow decreases by almost 100% over much of the UK, although smaller decreases are seen over mountainous regions in the north and west. 4. Marine Projections A new set of marine projections show that sea level around the UK will continue to rise
