WLRN: The folks in the Bahamas hamlet of Dunmore Town seem blissfully unaware of sea level rise. One resort hotel operator I called in Dunmore, which sits on Harbour Island, dismissed it altogether. I was just down at our beachside bar, she said. I didnt notice the sea level rising. (Yes, she was serious.) I told her Id call back in 50 years. Thats because recent studies warn that by then, if sea level rise projections of about three feet or more in this century are correct, three-fourths...

The projections are of immediate concern to low-lying countries and small island states. The new estimates are between 8cm and 98 cm by 2100, depending on the amount of carbon dioxide emitted and efforts...

Scientific American: Dear EarthTalk: Hurricane Sandy brought more sea water onto shorelines than Id ever witnessed before, and many communities near where I live are now being required to raise their homes up. What is the prognosis for sea level rise in the years immediately ahead?Scott P., Fairfield, Conn. Since sea level measurements were first recorded, in 1870, global averages have risen almost eight inches.
