We need to better define the impacts of different global sea-level rise scenarios. How will these change with socio-economic developments, with subsidence, with and without adaptation, and in relation to other climate change e.g. storminess variations? We need to understand the major impacts, and adaptation in subsiding areas, of relative sea-level rise.
