Abstract
This is a collection of GIS data in raster format which shows flooded area in the coastal zone of Virginia assuming the Intermediate-High sea level rise scenario from a NOAA publication (NOAA Technical Report NOS CO-OPS 083, Global and Regional Sea Level Rise Scenarios for the United States, 2017). There are 12 rasters which begin in 1992 (midpoint of most recent tidal epoch) and continue at decadal intervals through 2100. All flooded areas are at projected mean high water levels.
Keywords
sea level rise, flooding
