Most Viewed Paper for April 2013The paper by Tal Ezer, Larry Atkinson, William Corlett and Jose Blanco, entitled “Gulf Stream's induced sea level rise and variability along the U.S. mid-Atlantic coast,”
This paper has lead to many more researchers examining sea level rise rates in coastal areas.
Seawalls and pumping stations have protected Downtown Norfolk and led to economic development.
Future updates to this structure and others will depend onSLR projections.
• Consequences of SLR to Virginia; correlate with party affiliation
• Lack of consensus on nature of SLR and limited funding are potential barriers to SLR policy making
• State and local level planning most effective policy solutions
• Difference on who should take the lead to address SLR policy making in Virginia
• Republicans indicate that state agencies lead, Democrats indicate that federal government should lead.
