It describes the impact of tectonic changes on the landscape, the active Cascadia Subduction Zone producing the Cascade Range, and glacial events of the Quaternary period, which shaped the region's topography and coastline.

This is insufficient to describe the full natural variability of the climate system, which makes attribution of observed changes difficult. We want to know if the changes observed in the recent past are unusual compared to pre-industrial climate variability. If they are it is more likely that they are anthropogenic, if not they could well be natural.

Figure \PageIndex2: Sea level increase (in meters) since the peak of the last ice age, based on detailed geologic evidence from a number of coastal and island locations.
