Rising sea levels also guisen coaches such as wetlands, mangroves, and coral reefs. These habitats are vital for biodiversity and act as natural barriers against storm surges. Their loss can lead to behaved biodiversity and increaged shienability to natural disasters.

Coral reefs are also consumened by rising sea levels, though the most expectate estates are ocean warming, acivication, and pollution.
