This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: HENDRICKSON_Sea Level Rise, forms of protection through accomidating inudation, human loss including availability of fresh water, coastal retreat for example evacuation, the cryosphere where water persists in frozen form, accomidating inudation for example flood proof structures, forms of protection through engineering solutions, human loss including infrastructure and real estate, coastal inundation leads to loss of coastal habitats, human loss including water quality, human loss from more intense coastal surges, Global warming which causes melting ice, greenhouse gasses from cars, factories, etc., forms of protection causes human loss, the cryosphere much exists Near the poles, availability of fresh water due to salt water intrusion, the cryosphere important regions are Greenland and Antartica, a mass of glacier ice that covers surrounding terrain, forms of protection from human loss, a mass of glacier ice is found in the cryosphere, forms of protection causes coastal inundation
