The issue that we are looking into is doing computer simulations for what sea level rise will mean for many of the lower lying SIDS. We did one for Male' in Maldives, but they had good charts etc and some gifted computer boffins. All that it requires is a topographical map of the selected islands, and then juxtaposing this to IPCC findings. For Male' it was a significant loss of land by 2030 and disappearance in 2100. The question is - is this something that you or colleagues could assist us with? For some islands like Tuvalu the charts are all with the Admiralty or FCO and we do not have an easy "in" with them. Looking forward to hearing your views on this. Regards Espen >>> Merylyn Hedger 11/24/03 08:01pm >>> Hi Andrew et al. Can you in anyway help do a quick and dirty assessment for Espen. I have checked and he still wants the assistance- the email got stuck and lost in my in box whilst I thought what to do. Dear Merylyn (No its not too late. Please let me know what you hear from Tyndall. Regards Espen) Espen used to raise hell for the Marshall Islands in the UNFCCC processes. he is now part of the New York UN corps. I know anything you can get together he would value and you'd actually be producing a very useful output! Plse let me know what you decide to do and what happens.
