Three new research projects have been awarded $3.8 million in funding under the National Sea Level Programme, with findings expected to boost Singapore's preparedness against the rising tides.
The projects will study various aspects of the phenomenon by looking at factors that could have driven sea-level rise in the past, the current situation, and projecting what the future could be like.
