Some of the existing losses are due to tectonics. However, a number of areas are slated to disappear due to sea level increase, including portions of Eastport and City Dock in Annapolis, MD; Harborplace in Baltimore, MD; Blackwater Refuge; Ocean City; and Smith, Hooper's, and Bloodsworth Islands (http://local-warming.blogspot.com/2007/07/global-warming-and-chesapeake-bay-cbf.html, http://local-warming.blogspot.com/2007/02/warmer-md-may-disappear.html). There are also maps out there that graphically depict what 1m sea level increase actually looks like on the land surface. Harrowing, especially since additional areas will be at risk from inland flooding and storm surges.smoohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13914363385878149915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29774939.post-43701748140035299262007-11-27T22:06:00.000-05:002007-11-27T22:06:00.000-05:00This is all a worry but at least the uncaring John...This is all a worry but at least the uncaring John Howard is now out of office and the ALP - with a sincere interest in the Pacific, thanks to former front bencher Bob Sercombe, will be a better neighbour and a far more caring governmentAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
