Photo Gallery Miami Submerged
DER SPIEGEL commissioned the illustrations in this story from Climate Central, an independent association of scientists and journalists. They show four examples of the effect the warming of the atmosphere could have on the sea level if countermeasures are not undertaken now. The cities illustrated include New York, Miami, London and, representative of Asian megaports, Osaka, Japan.
