| dc.description.abstract |
Increasing instances of flooding by inland rivers in india are making large populations vulnerable. Globally, rise in sea-water levels is likely to affect more than 300 million people by 2050. By the end of 21st century, sea levels in the indian ocean are likely to rise by about 0.5–0.8 m depending on how the climate evolves. Global warming will trigger more intense cyclones, storm surges and heavy rainfall. Sea-level rise will also increase saltwater intrusion in coastal aquifers. © 2022. Current science.
