2 Project Rationale Sea level rise (SLR) over the next 50 to 100 years could be on the order of inches to meters Information about the extent and potential effects is important for planning and management

3 Goals and Objectives Goal #1: Predict the general patterns of sea level rise (SLR) across the Puget Sound region Phase 1: Predict inundation impacts for a range of SLR scenarios Phase 2: Quantify a range of coastal variables to develop a coastal vulnerability index (CVI)

4 Goals and Objectives Goal #2: Develop a method for analyzing impacts at the county or city level Use Pierce County as a demonstration project Model inundation and a range of human-dimension impacts, including population, economics, ecological, and cultural impacts Develop a repeatable methodology for local-scale analysis of SLR impacts

5 Project Scope Scenario SLR Height Reasoning SLR13 13 Puget Sound Year 2100 very low estimate 1 SLR22 22 Puget Sound Year 2050 very high estimate 1 SLR38 38 Puget Sound Year 2100 medium estimate 1 SLR50 50 Puget Sound Year 2100 very high estimate 1 SLR (5m) Year 2100 global estimate 2 1 Mote et al. (2008) Sea level rise in the coastal waters of Washington State. 2 Hansen (2007) Scientific reticence and sea level rise. Multiple spatial scales Forward projecting time scale Variety of potential impact factors

6 Regional Analysis: Phase 1 Data Inputs: SLR estimates, plus DEM Tides Land Cover

7 Regional Methodology

8 Regional Results **Results are preliminary and give a broad picture of the areas most likely to be affected as a result of projected sea level rise. Data is intended to generally project flooding impacts and is not meant for use in identifying specific properties at risk due to sea level rise. The results reflected herein may be updated based on the availability of new data. Authors make no warrant, express or implied, and assume no liability for the results of any actions taken or other information developed based on this report; nor does any party represent that the uses of this information will not infringe upon privately owned rights.
