Select all the correct answers. which questions about this data would coastal communities plan for a natural disaster now and in the future? a) how high must sea levels rise before coastal areas are at risk of flooding? b) what is the temperature of the seawater near the coastal areas? c) how will the rise in sea level affect tourism in coastal areas? d) at what rate is the sea level expected to rise in the next 100 years? e) which coastal towns face the greatest risk of flooding because of the rising sea level?

There are some important parameters in such situations that need to be investigated. Things such as the speed of the phenomenon, the risks associated with it and the affected communities/sites are important.

A) The first choice regards the speed of the rising as well as the inherent risk in that, so it is TRUE.
B) The second choice is rather irrelevant to the problem of flooding; the temperature of the water is a parameter that does not affect the flooding, the risk etc. So it is FALSE.
C) Tourism is an important consideration but the first consideration should be the health of people and inquiring about tourism does not help avoid a natural disaster. So it is FALSE.
D) The rate of the rise is important to know for future planning and in order to help with current models. So it is TRUE.
E) The affected towns are an important parameter in minimizing the impact of a natural disaster and hence it is helpful. So it is TRUE.

B) What is the temperature of the seawater near the coastal areas?

D) At what rate is the sea level expected to rise in the next 100 years?

E) Which coastal towns face the greatest risk of flooding because of the rising sea level?.

Explanation:

Looking at the data given by NASA on the rise of sea levels there is a marked rise in the level from 2001 onwards and is growing at an increasing rate.  Based on the data gathered it's essential to understand how this would affect the world, as the rise in temperature affects the sea waters near the coastal regions and as result on the basis of the rate of melting of the ice and glaciers this level is going to be doubled in the near future. Also the need to estimate the data of the places which will be most affected by the rise of floods and the great tropical disturbances.

Ice melting no wait thats global warming

Ihave no idea what the answer is
