Sea Level Rise in New England

Last week, I wrote a post discussing climate change and rising sea level, which focuses on the global scale. Back in April, Climatide published a post that discusses four reasons for sea level rise in New England. The author, Heather Goldstone, lists these four phenomena as influences on New England's "above average" sea level rise:

  • Rising Ocean Temperatures
  • Melting Ice
  • Changing Circulation
  • Shifting Land
