Climate change: How rising sea levels may affect Wales
Rising sea levels will be a central issue at the COP26 climate change summit, which kicks off in Glasgow on 31 October.
The UK sea level has been rising by more than a millimetre on average every year since 1901, with the level around Cardiff predicted to rise by up to 28cm by 2050.
With about 60% of the nation's population living in coastal areas, the impact of unchecked rises around Wales could be big.
