When ice gets trapped on land as giant ice sheets, it causes the sea level to change, but it doesn’t change by the same amount all around the planet. Like the moon, the gravity of the ice sheets ...

Here in the U.S., this is key to understand because 40% of the country’s population lives within coastal counties. Added to that is the fact that sea level rise is not the same everywhere you go.

Exactly when areas around the bay's edge will go underwater is uncertain, but studies suggest that by 2050, the region could experience 12 to 36 inches of sea level rise.

Access roads such as Calle Del Arroyo and Highway 1 would face increased storm flooding with as little as 1 to 2 feet of sea-level rise, which the study projects would occur between 2040 and 2050.
