The aim of the Sea-Level Rise Risk Assessment Project was to:

  •  Model the predicted sea-level changes in a range of scenario’s (time series, incremental climate change, shear events, and storm frequency and intensity).
  •  Model the form that those changes will take.
  •  Understand the associated impacts on existing coastal systems, infrastructure and property.
  •  Provide guidance and implications to future coastal development (to be included in the City’s Coastal Development Guidelines).
  •  Identify high risk areas that are prone to high impact.
  •  Begin to understand and develop long-term mitigation measures
