For some historical perspective, sea levels have risen on the close order of 400-440 feet since the last ice age (12-15,000 years).

Let's see...

That would be a 400 foot rise over about 150 centuries, or about two and a half feet per century.

I wonder how they explain the sudden slowing of the rise at the Golden Gate, with only about one-fourth of the expected rise?
