Objectives
The Climate Science Research Programme Office (CSRPO), under the Centre for Climate Research Singapore (CCRS) had set up the National Sea Level Programme (NSLP) in 2020. The CCRS, through the CSRPO, coordinated and drove research in sea level rise science supporting key research areas identified as crucial for adaptation in Singapore. The NSLP aims to coordinate relevant climate research in Singapore and address key knowledge gaps in the understanding and modelling of the physical mechanisms of sea level rise and variability, with specific focus on Singapore and the wider Southeast Asia region. Jointly delivered by local research institutes and Institutes of Higher Learning, the NSLP was completed in 2025.
