NY Harbor, NY: 48in. Sea Level Rise, 1000yr. Storm Return

NY Harbor, NY

This animation displays 48 inches of sea level rise and a 1000 year storm return period. Flooding along the Lower Hudson River estuary (e.g. Rockland, Westchester, New York City) are caused by offshore wind-blown storm surge and arise predominantly due to cool-season storms for lower floods and due to hurricanes for extreme floods.
