Coastal Risk Australia mapping showing the impacts of a 0.84m sea level rise in Byron Bay when combined with a high tide. Map showing current levels of flooding in Byron. Based on the current climate pledges that countries have made, there could be 3-4C of warming by 2100 and this is likely to see sea levels rise by about 70cm.

Our study shows that lower sea levels resulted in Australia growing by almost 40% during this time - from the current landmass of 7.2 million km 2 to 9.8 million km 2. The coastlines also looked.

In Australia, coastal risk due to a rise in sea level is a threat we will face over the next century. Based on a climate change report from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), by 2100 global sea levels could have increased by 0.84m. This means billions of dollars worth of infrastructure and private property will be affected.

The Climate change risks to coastal buildings and infrastructure report identifies the exposure of coastal infrastructure to inundation and erosion from a sea level rise of 1.1 metres. The report provides data on the exposure of: commercial buildings such as retail precincts light industrial buildings such as warehouses and manufacturing


Coastal hazards adaptation strategy Infrastructure Australia

The Coastal Risk Australia website charts the majority of Australia's enormous coastline and is free to use. It incorporates cutting-edge Google technology and local tidal data to accurately map how rising sea levels could encroach on cities, towns and beaches under three scientifically underpinned climate change scenarios..

Coastal resilience adaptation plans that respond to the impacts of climate change, including storms, cyclones, sea level rise, heatwaves, bushfires and water security, are critical to reducing climate risks to coastal communities.


Coastal communities in Australia empowered to take action on sealevel rise UNFCCC

Coastal Risk Australia maps expected sea level rise across Australia, including Byron Bay shown here with expected inundation by 2100. A new tool from APSEA award winning team at NGIS have released a first of its kind tool to allow Australians to visualise how sea level rise driven by climate change will impact their areas.

the Australian Government to produce a coastal climate risk management tool in support of coastal managers adapting to climate change and sea-level rise. This online tool, known as CoastAdapt, provides information on all aspects of coastal adaptation as well as a decision support framework. It can be accessed at www.coastadapt.com.au.


Coastal Risk

Rising sea levels over the 21st Century will put many of Australia's coastal cities and economic centres at risk of tidal, coastal and estuarine inundation, and coastal erosion, shoreline recession and sea leave rise.
