Glacier Melts, What Might Follow?

[dewline]

james_nicoll found something else of interest to me today: a predictive mashup mapping tool to predict where the water will end up once the glaciers in, say, Greenland/Kalaaliit Nunaat, start going bye-bye.

Here's the link. The default setting's apparently 7 metres, but you can fiddle within a range of zero to fourteen metres' rise in sea level.

I note for the Ottawans reading this that we don't seem to be affected in any detectable fashion by such complications in the biosphere, even at the maximum. I'd imagine that our infrastructure, real estate markets and whatnot will be affected in some form or other...?
