Effects of Climate Change on Exposure to Coastal Flooding in Latin America and the Caribbean
Table 5
Exposure in countries most affected from El-Niño sea levels.
Comparison of sea-level rise projections and El Niño 1998 sea levels. The aggregate values correspond to the six countries that have been most affected by El Niño sea levels in the past [26]: Peru, Ecuador, Panama, El Salvador, Costa Rica and Guatemala. [N98]: mean sea level induced by El Niño 1998 event; [rSLR2050]: relative sea-level rise for mid-century; [rSLR2090 RCP4.5]: scenario of relative sea-level rise for the end of the century corresponding to RCP4.5; [rSLR2090 RCP8.5]: scenario of relative sea-level rise for the end of the century corresponding to RCP8.5.
