reuters investigation
Reuters has published an investigation on US sea level rise: "Reuters gathered more than 25 million hourly readings from National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration tide gauges at nearly 70 sites on the Atlantic, Gulf and Pacific coasts and compared them to flood thresholds documented by the National Weather Service."
What d'ya know? The sea levels are rising!
Since they didn't use anything more fancy that tide gauges, I think that the developers and zoners of North Carolina can use the data, even. (there's a 2012 law that bans the state from basing coastal policies on the latest scientific predictions of how much the sea level will rise.)
