Coastal Hazards +6 FT Sea Level Rise RICHMOND
EL CERRITO
BERKELEY
Mapping of coastal hazards includes factors such as permanent tidal inundation, storm inundation, groundwater emergence, and wave exposure. The Bay Trail segments have been analyzed based on the total percent of inundation across these factors and weighted in the risk assessment accordingly. In the end-of-century scenario shown in Figure 2-3, the analysis illustrates the coastal impacts related to six feet of sea level rise. Areas of permanent tidal inundation and areas of potential groundwater shallowing and emergence are mapped for reference. More information related to the planning horizons and anticipated time ranges associated with mid-century and end-of-century sea level rise are described in Chapter One.
