Original Note:
A small rise in sea level is significant because it greatly amplifies the impacts of storm surges. For example, during Hurricane Sandy, it was estimated that about $8.1 billion of the $62.5 billion in damage was attributed to the sea level rise since 1950. https://yaleclimateconnections.org/2022/10/how-sea-level-rise-contributes-to-billions-in-extra-damage-during-hurricanes/
