Framework for High-End Estimates of Sea Level Rise for Stakeholder Applications
(Earth's Future, 2019)An approach to analyze high-end sea level rise is presented to provide a conceptual framework for high-end estimates as a function of time scale, thereby linking robust sea level science with stakeholder needs. Instead of ... -
Partitioning the Uncertainty of Ensemble Projections of Global Glacier Mass Change
(Earth's Future, 2020)Glacier mass loss is recognized as a major contributor to current sea level rise. However, large uncertainties remain in projections of glacier mass loss on global and regional scales. We present an ensemble of 288 glacier ... -
Poleward Shift of the Major Ocean Gyres Detected in a Warming Climate
(Geophysical Research Letters, 2020)Recent evidence shows that wind-driven ocean currents, like the western boundary currents, are strongly affected by global warming. However, due to insufficient observations both on temporal and spatial scales, the impact ... -
Projected Changes in Compound Flood Hazard From Riverine and Coastal Floods in Northwestern Europe
(Earth's Future, 2020-11-18)Compound flooding in coastal regions, that is, the simultaneous or successive occurrence of high sea levels and high river flows, is expected to increase in a warmer world. To date, however, there is no robust evidence on ...
