Abstract
On e of the primary effects of global warming is sea-level rise, and coastal lowland will be the strongly affected area of the effect, such as Mundu coastal land. Sea-level rise scenarios of Intergovernmental Panel on Climate change (IPCC) year of 2001 and 2007, for 0.8 and 0.5 meters maximum sea-level rise respectively at 2100, was applied on the coastal zone. Inundation analysis with no morphological change assumption indicates that most of the coastal lowland will be inundated when high tide condition at both sea level scenarios; and erosion analysis with disregarding erosion rate due to sea-level rate indicates that most of the coastal land will be eroded away. The erosion will also make lost of salt production lands from the coastal zone.
