Sea level will rise in response to the expansion of the warming oceans and from melting land ice. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change\u2019s 5th Assessment Report notes that for a climate change scenario consistent with remaining below 2°C, global mean sea level rise is likely to be between 0.26 to 0.55 m for the period 2081\u20132100, compared to 1986\u20132005. The top of this range could be higher should the marine-based ice sheets in Antarctica collapse, increasing by up to several tenths of a metre. Sea level rise will continue beyond the 21st<\/sup> century in this scenario even though global temperatures stabilise, with at least a further 0.5 m expected by 2500.<\/p>The future contribution from ice sheets remains very uncertain. There is a risk their melting could result in considerable sea level rise in the longer term.<\/p>
The UK government is funding research into future sea level rise and its impacts through the DECC and Defra co-funded Met Office Hadley Centre Climate Programme, and through the DECC funded AVOID programme.<\/p>"}
