Park J, Stabenau E, Kotun K. 2016. Sea Level Rise and Inundation Scenarios for National Parks in South Florida. South Florida Natural Resources Center, Everglades National Park. Homestead, FL

Sea level rise scenarios for South Florida including Everglades, Biscayne and Dry Tortugas National Parks based on the projections of Kopp et al (2015) are developed and used to create GIS innundation maps. Storm surge return intervals and heights based on the SurgeDAT database are derived. Local oceanographic dependencies are also discussed.
