Explore how sea levels are projected to rise along the Norwegian coast by the middle and end of this century, and towards the year 2300. This information is based on the latest national sea level assessment, "Sea level rise and extremes in Norway", published in April 2024.

Use of sea-level projections in planning

DSB’s guidelines Sea Level Rise and High Water Levels in Spatial Planning (only in Norwegian) gives recommendations for how coastal municipalities should adapt to rising sea levels and extreme still water levels. The guidelines are based on the latest national sea level assessment, which draws on the UN Climate Panel’s Sixth Assessment Report. Learn more about the recommended values.
