Century of Data Shows Sea-Level Rise Shifting Tides in Delaware, Chesapeake Bays – Science Daily
Article Synopsis – An international team of researchers has found evidence of how sea-level rise is already affecting high and low tides in both the Chesapeake and Delaware bays. The analysis showed that one meter of sea-level rise increased the tidal range by up to 20 percent in some areas of the Delaware Bay. By contrast, the shape of the Chesapeake Bay resulted in a different pattern of effects, in some cases slightly decreasing the tidal range. To read the actual article click here.
