Fig. 2: Percent of isolated population by race per year at intermediate and high SLR scenarios.
From: Demographics and risk of isolation due to sea level rise in the United States
Solid lines show the percentage of White (blue), Black (red), and Hispanic (green) populations at risk of isolation from 2030 to 2150 under intermediate (a) and high (b) SLR scenarios. Dashed horizontal lines represent the percentage of that racial group in the overall U.S. population. Therefore, a solid line above the dashed line suggests that that group is disproportionately affected by isolation.
