Abstract
My top 3 impressions up-front:

The sea level projections for the year 2100 have been adjusted upwards again.

The IPCC has introduced a new high-end risk scenario, stating that a global rise “approaching 2 m by 2100 and 5 m by 2150 under a very high greenhouse gas emissions scenario cannot be ruled out due to deep uncertainty in ice sheet processes.”

The IPCC gives more consideration to the large long-term sea-level rise beyond the year 2100.
