Ontario: Impact Of Rising Sea Level On Hudson and James Bay

This page describes the impact of rising sea levels on near-coastal, Ontario communities along Hudson Bay and James Bay. Two factors are examined: a) rate at which sea level is rising; and b) that rate at which the land is rising by isostatic rebound (isostatic adjustment).

Ontario Beneath Our Feet illustrates interesting geological features of Ontario found in Provincial Parks, along highways, and other accessible sites. The geological feature is described in the context of Ontario's geological history. Where relevant, the significance of the geological feature to our lives or tourism is described.
