Effects of climate change on sea levels and inundation relevant to the Pacific Islands

Description:
Sea level rise is a major consequence of climate change. The global sea level rise is due to a combination of the thermal expansion of the oceans (because of their warming), and an increase in runoff from the melting of continental glaciers (which adds water to the oceans).
