The #Petaluma Marsh was once 16,000 acres. Today, only 6,800 remain — and rising seas threaten what's left. A new report from @sfestuaryinstitute.bsky.social proposes using dredged #sediment from the Petaluma River to raise marsh elevations and protect the city from #sealevelrise.

Many River Deltas Are Sinking Faster than Sea Level is Rising
Of 40 river deltas studied 18 are sinking faster than sea level is rising including the Mississippi river delta.

[10/10] Le littoral change de statut. D’espace stable à aménager, il devient un système mouvant à gérer dans le temps long. L’adaptation, le recul et la transformation des usages s’imposent comme conditions d’un nouvel habiter côtier. #geography #sealevelrise #adaptation
[1/10] EROSION LITTORALE - Gilles Caprais montre qu'en Charente-Maritime, certains secteurs comme l’île d’Oléron reculent jusqu’à 8 m par an, révélant une transformation rapide du trait de côte sous l’effet des tempêtes et de la montée des eaux. #geography #sealevelrise #adaptation
[6/6] Cette initiative illustre une évolution des politiques de gestion des risques. Au-delà des infrastructures, l’adaptation passe par les sociétés elles-mêmes, capables d’anticiper, d’agir et de s’organiser face à des aléas appelés à se multiplier. #geography #risk #sealevelrise #adaptation
[1/6] En #Bretagne, sur la presqu’île de Gâvres, une formation inédite cherche à renforcer la "culture du risque" face à la submersion marine. Elle part d’un constat simple. Les habitants restent souvent le maillon faible des politiques de prévention.

As restoration continues on adjacent salt ponds, jurisdictions across #SantaClara County are beginning to develop a sea level rise plan to protect the whole shoreline. #SeaLevelRise

A $20M tidal #marshrestoration project just wrapped up in #MountainView, and it's one of the biggest steps yet in the South Bay Salt Pond Restoration Project. The Pond A2W project restored 435 acres of former salt pond, raised the Bay Trail against #sealevelrise, and reconnected waterways.

Many coastal hazard studies underestimate #SeaLevelRise impacts because they use simplified sea-level assumptions.
Correcting these methods shows that far more land and people could fall below sea level than previously estimated, highlighting the need to reassess coastal risk worldwide.
The fate of barrier islands in presence of sea level rise depends on their underwater shape.🏝️

[6/6] L’étude montre finalement que la hausse du niveau marin résulte de la dilatation de l’eau et de l’apport des glaces. Cette dynamique modifie durablement les littoraux africains et impose des stratégies combinant réduction des émissions et adaptation locale.

[1/6] Franck Ghomsi, océanographe, analyse les données satellitaires entre 1993 et 2024 pour comprendre la hausse du niveau marin autour de l’Afrique. Son travail montre une élévation rapide liée au réchauffement et à la fonte des glaces. #geography #oceanography #sealevelrise #Africa
Courtney Humphries, author of ‘Climate Change and the Future of Boston', was interviewed by Miranda Melcher @newbooksnetwork.bsky.social. Listen here ➡️ tinyurl.com/2vhb8pjz #ClimateChange #UrbanClimate #Boston #SeaLevelRise #ClimateResilience #AnthemPress #MirandaMelcher #CourtneyHumphries
A vast, icy landscape featuring the snow-covered mountains and glaciers of Antarctica. In the foreground, a whale's tail is visible above the calm water, creating a serene scene. The sky is overcast, adding to the tranquil atmosphere.
Satellite data from 1992-2025 show that most Antarctic glacier grounding lines remain stable, but major retreat is occurring in vulnerable regions.
Warm ocean water reaching glaciers is driving ice loss, highlighting areas that could accelerate future #SeaLevelRise.

A collapse of the Thwaites Glacier in Antarctica would sharply accelerate sea-level rise in coastal cities.
Under Trump, the US has senselessly abandoned research that could better forecast the effects of Antarctica’s melting ice.

New research in Communications Earth & Environment shows how atmospheric rivers and winter sea ice influence Antarctic ice mass trends, shaping recent changes in ice loss.
