Multiple studies raise new questions about whether New Orleans, Miami, Houston and other coastal communities might be even more at risk from rising seas than once predicted.

The coasts of the southeastern United States and the Gulf of Mexico are seeing record sea-level rise caused by man-made climate change and a peak in natural weather variability, according to a new study out Monday.
Researchers found rates of sea-level rise of about a half an inch per year since 2010 — three times higher than the global average over the same period. A Tulane University study found that sea levels along the U.S. Southeast and Gulf coasts have accelerated at record-breaking rates of half an in
Multiple new studies highlight a rate of sea level rise that is ‘unprecedented in at least 120 years’ along the Gulf of Mexico and southeastern U.S. coast.
Sea levels off the southeastern U.S. have risen more than a centimeter a year over the past decade—about triple the global average—and the effects on communities near the Gulf of Mexico and Atlantic Ocean already are being observed
Multiple new studies highlight a rate of sea-level rise that is "unprecedented in at least 120 years" along the Gulf of Mexico and southeastern U.S. coast.
Scientists find "unprecedented" rates of sea level rise along some U.S. coasts that's 3 times higher than global average | Since Then
