Land impacted by inundation due to sea level rise is projected to rise in Brazil under various Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSP).
The biggest impact on areas affected is mostly under the SSP5-8.5 high emission scenario, with the biggest impact of climate change on sea level. Land under mean sea level reaches almost, 4613 square kilometers at the end of the century in this scenario, relative to the historic baseline.

Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSP): SSP1-1.9: very low GHG emissions - COâ‚‚ emissions cut to net zero around 2050. SSP1-2.6: low GHG emissions - COâ‚‚ emissions cut to net zero around 2075. SSP2-4.5: intermediate GHG emissions - COâ‚‚ emissions around current levels until 2050, then falling but not reaching net zero by 2100: SSP3-7.0: high GHG emissions - COâ‚‚ emissions double by 2100. SSP5-8.5: very high GHG emissions - COâ‚‚ emissions triple by 2075.
