Acerca de este libro electrónico

Sea Level Rise offers a comprehensive exploration of the escalating issue of rising sea levels, a critical aspect of climate change. The book examines the primary factors driving this phenomenon: thermal expansion of water, glacial melt, and the dynamics of ice sheets, highlighting their individual and combined contributions to the problem. Intriguingly, the book also reveals that the impact isn't uniform globally; regional variations occur due to factors such as land subsidence and ocean currents, causing some areas to experience more severe consequences.

The book progresses logically, beginning with foundational knowledge and historical context before delving into specific topics like glacial contributions and ice sheet dynamics. It concludes by examining the effects on coastal communities and ecosystems, and also explores adaptation and mitigation strategies. This approach ensures that readers gain a solid understanding of the complexities involved, as well as the interdisciplinary efforts needed from Earth Sciences, Geography, and Environment sectors.

By integrating scientific data with social and economic analyses, Sea Level Rise provides a unique and accessible perspective, making it a valuable resource for students, researchers, policymakers, and anyone keen to understand the science and implications of our changing coastlines.
