Climate crisis: Sea level rise will be faster than previously thought, scientists warn – The Independent
University of Copenhagen study suggests oceans could rise 25 per cent higher than previous predictions
Scientists fear sea levels will rise more rapidly than previously thought, according to a new study which found current predictions have been too conservative.
The UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Changes 2019 report estimated that by 2100, global mean sea levels will rise by about a metre.
However researchers at the University of Copenhagen’s Niels Bohr Institute now say that this prediction is significantly wide of the mark after they interrogated the IPCC models with historical data.
