Projected sea-level rise flooding inundation extents for 0.00, +0.25, +0.50, +1.00, +1.50, +2.00, and +3.00 meter in the Mariana Islands (ver. 1.1, February 2025)

Description

This data release provides flooding extent polygons based on potential future sea-level rise (SLR) rise water levels for the coast of the most populated Mariana Islands of Guam and Saipan in the Common Wealth of Northern Mariana Islands (CNMI). Digital elevation models were used to predict SLR flooding extents for 0.00 m, +0.25 m, +0.50 m, +1.00 m, +1.50 m, +2.00 m, and +3.00 m SLR rise scenarios.
