Communities along the US East Coast, particularly in the Southeast and Mid-Atlantic regions, are at risk of increased flooding due to higher baseline sea levels caused by a slowing AMOC. Areas such as Florida, Georgia, the Carolinas, Virginia, and Maryland could experience more frequent nuisance flooding and greater storm surge impacts during hurricanes and nor'easters. Elevated sea levels may also lead to infrastructure strain, including roads and drainage systems, and disrupt daily life in low-lying neighborhoods. Additionally, reduced nutrient movement in the ocean could negatively affect marine ecosystems and fisheries, impacting local economies reliant on these resources.
