per year. Note this linear trend will change as more data are collected by the tide gauge. Also, when the slope of the linear trendline changes, the computed amount of rise will change.

The observed data and NOAA curves included in the projection can be reproduced using the USACE Sea Level Rise calculator http://corpsmapu.usace.army.mil/rccinfo/slc/slcc_calc.html and USACE Sea Level Tracker https:// climate.sec.usace.army.mil/slr_app/. Inundation from sea level rise can be visualized by using the Florida Sea Level Sketch Planning Tool https://sls.geoplan.ufl.edu/beta/viewer/.
