Preparing a talk + I'm struck again by this adaptation strategies by Voelz et al., 2024.
I think as ice sheet scientists we are sometimes too caught up in processes. Smart engineers + social scientists FTW - they have developed the kind of adaptation frameworks that can be used to modulate the effects of sea level rise on communities - Would still be cheaper and easier to reduce fossil fuel emissions though...

🌍 Some nations may vanish by 2100
🌊 Rising seas are erasing countries like Kiribati, Tuvalu, and the Maldives
⚖️ They emit the least but suffer the most
A global injustice. A future at stake.

Global sea levels rose a whopping 125 feet after the last ice age | Live Science…
Melting ice caps in North America, Antarctica and Europe caused sea levels to rise quickly as temperatures warmed after the last ice age. But researchers have lacked robust... #sealevelrise #climate #icecaps

Coastal #heritage threatened by climate change
Humans have always lived by #coasts and #waterways, and thus these locations are rich with #archeological sites. Natural and cultural resource management are conducted separately, despite the fact that climate change, #seaLevelRise, and #extremeWeather threaten them both.

Senator #AngusKing fumes at #ClimateChange being nixed from annual threat assessment
Chris D’Angelo for The Maine Monitor April 8, 2025
"#Maine has been described as a 'climate haven,' [the same for #Vermont] a place expected to remain relatively sheltered from the most extreme and dangerous impacts of global climate change. But the #PineTreeState is far from immune.
"Fossil fuel-driven climate change is intensifying #HeatWaves, #flooding and other #ExtremeWeather events. Waters in the #GulfOfMaine are warming faster than nearly every other swath of ocean on the planet, threatening the future of the state’s signature #lobster industry and other #fisheries.
"Sea levels here are forecast to rise approximately 4 feet by the end of the century, forcing coastal communities, shipyards and military installations to prepare and adapt.
" 'This is a guaranteed threat,' said #AmyEshoo, director of #MaineClimateActionNow. 'It’s not one we can negotiate with. It’s not one that we can put #tariffs on. It’s not one we can go to the table with. We unleashed it. It’s here. We’re feeling its effects. Maine is definitely feeling them.' "

"Due to rising temperatures, the Organization of Ibero-American States (EOI) has warned of new threats. The tiger mosquito, from Southeast Asia, has begun to colonize much of Catalonia and the Valencian Community. Tropical diseases such as malaria, Zika virus, Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever, West Nile virus, and others are re-emerging in Spain in areas where they were previously eradicated or never occurred, as high temperatures allow the vectors (mainly mosquitoes) that transmit them to persist."—Juanjo Santos

FEMA quietly removes access to New England coastal erosion hazard tool
Planners and resilience experts say long-term erosion maps had been critical
The Coastal Erosion Hazard viewer on the Federal Emergency Management Agency website "predicted erosion risk across the coast for the years 2030, 2050, and 2100, and until recently was publicly accessible."
