This map highlights potential economic losses (in 2015 dollars) in the exposure area associated with 3.2 feet of sea level rise on the island of O‘ahu, Hawai‘i. Potential economic losses are estimated from impacts to land and residential and commercial infrastructure. Highly impacted areas at risk of large economic losses include the U.S. Pacific Command and military infrastructure concentrated in Pearl Harbor (black circle) and the vulnerable tourist areas surrounding Waikīkī (dashed black circle).  Source: adapted by Tetra Tech Inc. from the Hawai‘i Climate Change Mitigation and Adaptation Commission 2017.0244c888-89df-4a3c-a7f1-79af0a0a6f00
