SEATTLE -- Rising sea-levels brought on by global warming will erode Puget Sound beaches, inundate tidal flatlands and harm salmon habitat, the National Wildlife Federation said in a report released Tuesday.
The study, which focused on 11 coastal habitats in Washington and Oregon, examines the impact of rising sea-levels on the diverse geography of the Pacific Northwest.
