===== Old aerial photos give scientists a new tool to predict sea level rise =====
[https://phys.org/news/2025-07-aerial-photos-scientists-tool-sea.html by Kristian Bjorn 2/7/25 PHYS ORG]
On 28 November 1966, an American airplane flies over the Antarctic Peninsula just south of the southernmost tip of Chile. On board is a photographer, probably from the U.S. Navy, whose job is to map the Antarctic landscape. But it turns out that the photographer is also documenting a very special situation that is in progress. He shoots an aerial photo of the Wordie Ice Shelf, which, 30 years later, has almost vanished after a total collapse.
===== Mangroves show surprising resilience to storms in a changing climate =====
[https://phys.org/news/2025-05-mangroves-resilience-storms-climate.html by Yale University 30/5/25 PHYS ORG]
The findings, recently published in Global Change Biology, help illuminate the complex process of ecosystem recovery after climate-driven shocks and the value of long-term ecological monitoring.

===== The experiment that may have saved a Washington town from falling into the ocean =====
[https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2022/oct/08/coastal-erosion-washington-climate-crisis-solution by Erick Bengel 8/9/22 The Guardian]
When David Cottrell was about three, his father drove him down a short road toward the beach in their home town of North Cove.
=====Coasts Should Plan for 6.5 Feet Sea Level Rise by 2100 as Precaution, Experts Say=====
https://insideclimatenews.org/news/21052019/antarctica-greenland-ice-sheet-melting-sea-level-rise-risk-climate-change-polar-scientists
If planners are working with a mid-range projection of sea level rise, their efforts might protect coastal regions from the most likely scenarios depicted in climate models, but that still leaves a lot of risk, say the authors of the study published Monday in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
=====Ice sheet contributions to future sea-level rise from structured expert judgment=====
https://www.pnas.org/content/early/2019/05/14/1817205116
The 95th percentile ice sheet contribution by 2200, for the +5 °C scenario, is 7.5 m (about 23 ft) as a result of instabilities coming into play in both West and East Antarctica. Introducing process correlations and tail dependences increases estimates by roughly 15%.
=====Louisiana's New Climate Plan Prepares for Resilience and Retreat as Sea Level Rises=====
https://insideclimatenews.org/news/17052019/louisiana-climate-migration-plan-retreat-sea-level-rise-global-warming
People are already migrating inland as the ocean rises with global warming and the delta sinks. The state's new plan looks at ways to ease the transition.

  The Biorock® method is a revolutionary solution applicable to an increasing range of problematic environmental conditions coastal nations are presently facing on a global scale. Compared to traditional alternatives the Biorock method is the most cost-effective and environmentally beneficial solution available for protecting coastal resources from the effects of global warming and global sea level rise.
