Elevation projections for Pohnpei mangrove forests under a range of sea-level rise scenarios, 2020-2100
Model projections of mangrove soil elevation under a range of sea-level rise scenarios (37, 52, 67, and 117 cm by 2100). Soil elevation changed in response to mineral and organic matter inputs and relative changes in sea-level. The model was calibrated using dated soil cores, extensive elevation and vegetation survey data, and water level observations around Pohnpei. Mean elevation for each region was calculated from 100 Monte Carlo simulations and were output annually from 2020-2100. Further details on model development, calibration, and validation are provided in the full report.
