And the name should be changed to New Venice! I like it!!
I hope your apartment in NYC is on a high floor. My old place would be completely submerged.
I would think there would be greater concern for what Manhattan would do to the ocean water than the other way around. The rise would be terribly gradual, after all.
Where is the Intrepid? It should be floating above the water.
(The Intrepid is the decommissioned aircraft carrier that's now a mueseam and anchored on the end of NYC).
IPCC tar esitmates ~ 88 cm by 2100 . That pic looks like about 6m - which won't come until GIS melts.
What with all the recent discoveries on the fluid dynamics of melting glaciers, it's unknown how long it will take GIS to melt - maybe hundreds of years, maybe thousands.
Fortunately, Morningside Heights is easily high enough above sea level to stay above water. Unfortunately, it might become an island.
