Risk Level Study on the Impact of Sea Level RiseAlong the Coast of Tianjin

Abstract

Long-term cumulative rise of sea level will exacerbate disasters such as storm surges, soil salinization and coastal erosion. However, there are obvious regional differences in the natural characteristics and socio-economic development levels of the coast. The impact of the natural environment and the socio-economic risks caused by sea level rise has shown regional differences. The paper analyzed the risk of sea level rise impact in Tianjin Binhai New Area. It was assessed that the southern part of Tianjin Binhai New Area would have the highest level of sea level rise risk and the northern part would have the lowest level of risk.
