Projected extreme sea levels under a high emission scenario SSP585 for harbours in British Columbia

Projected extreme sea levels under a high emission scenario SSP585 for harbours in British Columbia is an open dataset from Fisheries and Oceans Canada with 5 files (CSV, ESRI REST); catalogue record updated 2026-03-24. On CanQuery you can open 2 CSV or Excel files as tables, filter, chart and export up to 10,000 rows as CSV and follow the original downloads. Files are available in English and French.

This dataset provides projected 30-year, 50-year, and 100-year return levels for harbours in British Columbia by 2050 and 2100 under a high emission scenario SSP585, relative to the mean sea level over 1993-2020. The return levels are a combination of estimated present extreme sea levels and projected mean sea level rise. The present extreme sea levels are derived from hourly coastal sea levels for the period from 1993 to 2020, simulated using a high-resolution Northeast Pacific Ocean Model (NEPOM). The projected mean sea level rise is derived from the regional mean sea level rise data of the IPCC 6th Assessment Report under SSP585, adjusted for the local vertical land motion.
