Sea-Level Rise Threatens Sydney Coast
Marian Wilkinson and Ben Cubby, The Sydney Morning Herald: "Sydney's iconic beaches, coastal houses, commercial property and roads will be threatened by rising sea levels by 2050, while the city's temperature is expected to rise by at least two degrees, a new scientific study, launched by the Premier, Nathan Rees, reveals. The study finds that bushfires are likely to be more intense while rainfall may become more erratic, creating water shortages. But while winter rains decline, intense summer rain in parts of Sydney could increase flash flooding."
