“local” sea level rise is due to local changes in the level of the land. You know that landmasses rise and fall due to tectonic plate movements, right? So the shoreline of some regions are sinking, leading to “relative” sea level rise. The original article in the Journal of Marine Science and Engineering explains this well. Part of the problem is that reporters do not reliably distinguish between “absolute” and “relative” sea level change. Neither do agenda driven pseudo scientists.
Yes, and to pile it up on certain coastlines, and pull it away from other coasts.
It’s good to have scientific papers acknowledge the things about the “climate warming” agenda that we have instinctively known all along.
they will never give it up
it is the key to worldwide tyranny
a climate emergency will be declared
and the problem will never be solved
For a quite long time, it was known that e.g. Scandinavia is rising, because it is still rebounding from the Ice age, when the huge glacier weight pushed it down.
On the other hand, Holland is sinking, due to huge sediments of Rhine weighting the continental shelf there down.
This August in Virginia was one of the coolest in history.
VERY GOOD POINT
they will never let you down
they will never run around and desert you
It is the nature of continents to sink into the earth’s crust until earth’s rock becomes a perfectly round sphere, except where continent-building forces push it outward.
What with tidal effects, an ever moving surface and local weather, such measurements are at best unreliable.
“This August in Virginia was one of the coolest in history.”
Most years here in coastal New Jersey I put the heat on about half past October. But I’ve been considering it the last couple of days; it was downright chilly.
Photos of Ellis island from 1892 and 2025 show the water level to be the same.
Scientific fact says that is silly....
Ice cubes in your drink when they melt cause the whisky to overflow the glass unless you drink the whiskey quickly.
If a big Pacific Samoan goes into the ocean then the water rises. There just isn’t enough Samoans to worry about raising the water level much.
The reason the Atlantic ocean rises is all them Cunard liners hitting the melting icebergs and sinking...
#5 If the Atlantic ocean rises 1 foot, doesn’t the Pacific ocean also rise 1 foot??????
