Tasmania Sea Level Rise Map

The project was concerned with mapping of a set of sea level rise scenarios around the tasmanian coast and a representation of a set of those scenarios as inundation hazard bands. Tasmania can expect longer fire seasons, with around 40% more very high fire danger days 3. Further information on sea level rise impacts including maps can be viewed on the coastadapt website.

Sea level rise • global sea level is projected to increase, on average, by 0.82 metres by 2100. The range of tasmanian coastal landforms in combination with likely processes of degradation allowed various key factors to be identified, and applied to a detailed line map of the state’s coastal landforms. Snow fell to 400 metres above sea level in the morning, and is expected to rise to 900 metres by the end of the weekend.

These projections were provided by the third assessment report (tar;

Tasmania can expect longer fire seasons, with around 40% more very high fire danger days 3. Extreme rain events in tasmania are projected to become more intense. The strong and gusty southwesterly winds battering the state should ease on. The tasmanian government has developed coastal inundation and erosion maps that show how sea level rise and major storm events are projected to affect tasmania's coastline.
