The Sea Level Investigation and Management (SLIM) program at Harvard’s Salata Institute for Climate and Sustainability invites proposals for research on storing water on and within the land to slow sea level rise. Our objective is a credible, costed plan for water storage at the scale of Greenland’s annual melt, supported by measurements, assessment of candidate locations, and analysis of benefits and implementation requirements.
