Abstract: | Novel prospects for the Maldives do not include a condemnation to future flooding. The people of the Maldives have, in the
past, survived a higher sea level of about 50 – 60 cm. The present trend lack signs of a sea level rise. On the contrary, there is
firm morphological evidence of a significant sea level fall in the last 30 years. This sea level fall is likely to be the effect of
increased evaporation and an intensification of the NE-monsoon over the central Indian Ocean. |
