What it calculates
The “Sea Level Rise (impact)” calculator computes Sea level rise by 2100 in cm from 2 parameters: scenario (1 = ssp1-1.9, 2 = ssp1-2.6, 3 = ssp2-4.5, 4 = ssp3-7.0, 5 = ssp5-8.5), site elevation above sea level (m).
Estimates environmental impact and carbon footprint.
Example calculation
With parameters Scenario (1 = SSP1-1.9, 2 = SSP1-2.6, 3 = SSP2-4.5, 4 = SSP3-7.0, 5 = SSP5-8.5) = 3, Site elevation above sea level = 2 m the result is 56 cm (Global mean; local rise differs due to land subsidence).
How to use
- Enter scenario (1 = ssp1-1.9, 2 = ssp1-2.6, 3 = ssp2-4.5, 4 = ssp3-7.0, 5 = ssp5-8.5) and site elevation above sea level — each field above is adjustable with a slider.
