Rising sea levels have caused significant damage to coastal property at Lakka and Konakridee, thus threatening human health and coastal ecosystems that become sediment-starved. Such conditions will also inundate coastal wetlands and other low-lying lands and intensify erosion and flooding as new areas become exposed to storm surges, waves, currents and tides. In other words, any rise in current sea levels will mean land and ecosystem loss, causing a loss of associated cultural resources especially if local populations are forced to relocate.
