The New York Climate Risk Assessment

What the New York City climate risk assessment shows about the city long-term future

The Assessment

The New York City climate risk assessment -- the specific modelling of what sea level rise, increased storm surge, heat events, and changing precipitation patterns will produce for the specific geography and infrastructure of New York City over the next several decades -- has produced the specific findings that the accountability journalism of climate risk requires the public to have access to.

The Findings

The findings: the areas of the city at highest risk from the combined effects of sea level rise and storm surge are the same areas that the post-Sandy recovery has identified -- the coastline of the outer boroughs, the low-lying areas of Lower Manhattan, and the specific industrial and residential areas adjacent to the waterways. The heat risk is concentrated in the urban heat island areas of the inner boroughs where the combination of limited green space and heat-retaining built environment produces the highest temperatures.
