Miami\u2019s real problem isn\u2019t rising seas as much as land&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/oceanservice.noaa.gov\/facts\/subsidence.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">subsidence<\/a>. Much of&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.huffpost.com\/entry\/vintage-miami-beach-100-y_b_6974194\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Miami was built on reclaimed swamp land<\/a>, and then built up with modern infrastructure. That extra weight causes a sinking of the land, known as subsidence, allowing seawater to seep in when the surfaces sink to near sea-level. It also means that during strong rainfall events, and hurricane storm surge, areas that have subsided don\u2019t drain as they did years before.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is clearly covered in the scientific paper&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/piahs.copernicus.org\/articles\/382\/207\/2020\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><em>Land subsidence contribution to coastal flooding hazard in southeast Florida<\/em><\/a><em>,&nbsp;<\/em>published in Proceedings of IAHS in 2020. The paper clearly states:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Preliminary results reveal that subsidence occurs in localized patches (&lt;\u20090.02\u2009km<sup>2<\/sup>)&nbsp;with magnitude of up to 3\u2009mm\u2009yr<sup>\u22121<\/sup>, in urban areas built on reclaimed marshland. These results suggest that contribution of local land subsidence affect[s] only small areas along the southeast Florida coast, but in those areas coastal flooding hazard is significantly higher compared to non-subsiding areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Subsidence is also driven by freshwater withdrawals from the region\u2019s groundwater reservoirs to satisfy the Miami metro area\u2019s growing population.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Clearly, sea level rise in Florida has more to do with subsidence and land management than climate change induced rise. Plus, Miami\u2019s flat terrain, just a few feet above sea level, lacks natural drainage routes for rainwater to flow away from urban areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As discussed in numerous&nbsp;<em>Climate Realism<\/em>&nbsp;articles,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/climaterealism.com\/2022\/11\/nasa-jet-propulsion-lab-misleads-about-sea-level-rise\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">here<\/a>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/climaterealism.com\/2021\/11\/no-yahoo-news-sea-level-is-not-guaranteed-to-rise-by-five-feet\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">here<\/a>, for instance, there is no evidence whatsoever seas are rising at an usually rapid rate. As shown in&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/climateataglance.com\/climate-at-a-glance-sea-level-rise\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Climate at a Glance: Sea Level Rise<\/a>, there is approximately the same pace of sea-level rise today that has occurred since at least the mid-1800s, disproving claims of recent climate change worsening it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">SFSS goes on to outline a trifecta of additional climate threats, saying:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are three main climate change threats in Florida, said Polsky: More intense rain events, which leads to greater flooding; more coastal flooding \u2014 both from storm surge and high tides; and more heat and wildfire risk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Let\u2019s examine rainfall.

The flat landscape allows fires to spread quickly, while the dense vegetation provides ample fuel for them to grow in intensity.
