New Zealanders generally expect their land and property rights will endure indefinitely. At present, coastal properties continue to be in exceptional demand and command top dollar but for how long ?

Despite living in dynamic environments and facing an uncertain future because of climate change, New Zealanders generally expect their land and property rights will endure indefinitely. At present, coastal properties continue to be in exceptional demand and command top dollar but for how long ?

Climate change begets more frequent severe weather and flood events, whose capacity for destruction should check coastal development—but it hasn’t. Instead, the same actors (developers, engineers, architects) respond by building higher or stronger, elevating a mantle of “resiliency” that absolves us from attending to the pressing challenge at hand: dramatically restructuring how we inhabit space in a changing world. Adapt to climate change - we must....

Heatwaves and droughts across Europe, more intense northern winters & storms, changing rainfall in the tropics, heightened hurricane risk and sea-level rise along the U.S. coast. If Atlantic currents keep weakening as the research indicates, then we're all going to feel it's climate effects one way....

Devastating earthquakes in Christchurch and Kaikoura, major floods around the country including in Southland and Napier last year, the 2019 Nelson bushfires ... these are just some of the natural disasters of the last 10 years. But, thanks to the compounding effects of climate change, the incidence....

If you own (or are thinking about buying) a beach-front or coastal cliff-top property - this research should give you pause to think ahead and consider the escalating effects of climate change and sea-level rise on the future insurability and value of your property. Call Geohazard Assessment Services for a property appraisal before you buy - ‘know the ground beneath your feet’.

Scientists looking at the pace of sea level rise are becoming increasingly alarmed. This is partly because of the volume of ice disappearing from mountain glaciers and the poles, and another major factor - the warming of the oceans, appears to have been underestimated in previous studies. Newly publ...

If you are considering purchasing that dream coastal property to retire to (whether it be beach-front or cliff top) – this research news should give you pause to at least consider the likelihood of more frequent extreme weather events coupled with continuing sea-level rise affecting your intended property. Think about how these climate change factors will inevitably impact upon your future insurability and property value.

Despite reductions in global carbon emissions due to the COVID-19 lockdown, the world's oceans in 2020 were the warmest in recorded history, according to a new study. The study also found that over the past eight decades, the world's oceans have been warmer in each decade than in the previous one. T...

If Earth is losing ice at a dramatic rate - where's the melted ice going ? - the answer simply lies with steadily increasing global sea-level ... if you own a low-lying coastal property then you may want to find out how future sea-level rise might affect you and your property.

An estimated 28 trillion metric tons of ice have melted away from the world’s sea ice, ice sheets and glaciers since the mid-1990's. Annually, the melt rate is now about 57 % faster than it was just 30 years ago and has added enough water to the ocean during this period to raise its average global...
