View help for Summary
Many sea level rise (SLR)
assessments focus on populations presently inhabiting vulnerable coastal
communities,
but to date no studies have attempted to model the destinations of these
potentially displaced persons. With millions of potential future migrants in
heavily populated coastal communities, SLR scholarship focusing solely on
coastal communities characterizes SLR as primarily a coastal issue, obscuring
the potential impacts in landlocked communities created by SLR induced displacement.
Here I address this issue by merging projected populations at-risk of SLR with migration
systems simulations to project future destinations of SLR migrants in the
United States (US).
The full draft of my peer reviewed article will be forthcoming. I include the underlying IRS county-to-county migration data for the period 1990-2013, and the county-to-county migration flows assuming adaptation and no-adaptation scenarios under the 1.8m SLR scenario by 2100.
