As sea levels rise, king tides will cause greater potential damage, reminding us that beloved coastal areas may be underwater or flooded at least twice a year.
The alignment of the earth, moon, and sun creates king tides—often 1 to 2 feet higher than average tides, reflecting alarming trends due to climate change.
King tides offer a visceral way for the public to grasp future sea level rise, contributing to increasing awareness about coastal vulnerabilities and community action.
The California King Tides project enables residents to document king tides visually, providing a powerful record of coastal changes and fostering greater community consciousness.
