Data Book of Sea Level Rise from Center for Global Environmental Research, National Institute for Environmental Studies

Therefore, the Center for Global Environmental Research has compiled this data book on sea level rise for better understanding of various aspects of sea level rise in plain language with visual tables and figures. In addition, editors and authors have made efforts to incorporate recent findings such as those reported in the IPCC Second Assessment Report in 1995 as much as possible.

The following topics are included: Mechanisms and Projections of Global Warming and Sea-level Rise Impacts of Sea-level Rise on Coastal Zones International Programs and Activities Vulnerability Assessment Response Strategies and Integrated Coastal Zone Management Plans This work was performed in cooperation with Prof. Nobuo Mimura of the Ibaraki University and Pacific Consultants Co., Ltd.
