PACIFIC SEA LEVELS RISING VERY SLOWLY AND NOT ACCELERATING
QUAESTIONES GEOGRAPHICAE 38(1) • 2019 ^ | Revised version: February 7, 2019 | Albert Parker 1, Clifford Ollier 2

Abstract: Over the past decades, detailed surveys of the Pacific Ocean atoll islands show no sign of drowning because of accelerated sea-level rise. Data reveal that no atoll lost land area, 88.6% of islands were either stable or increased in area, and only 11.4% of islands contracted. The Pacific Atolls are not being inundated because the sea level is rising much less than was thought. The average relative rate of rise and acceleration of the 29 long-term-trend (LTT) tide gauges of Japan, Oceania and West Coast of North America, are both negative, −0.02139 mm yr−1 and −0.00007 mm yr−2 respectively. Since the start of the 1900s, the sea levels of the Pacific Ocean have been remarkably stable.

Despite the many uncertainties, we may conclude that the relative rate of rise and the relative acceleration of the Pacific sea levels are negligible, and very far from the model predictions of the IPCC AR5 Chapter 13 that assume a present rate of rise absolute of 3.4 mm yr−1 and require an acceleration of +0.1268 mm yr−2 to support their claims for 2050 and 2100.

Another hole in an aspect of Leftist dogma.

This is really a slam dunk for us. If the Pacific is showing no rise, if the islands are stable, then why all this alarm?

Thanks xzins. It has something to do with the fact that the global warming hoaxters are full of ****.

All you have to do is check the NOAA tide maps. It tells you right there was the annual rise in sea level is. If you do the calculations for this “3 foot rise” that now is starting to be assumed everywhere as “settled science,” you will see it will take something like 1600 years to get that rise.

Yes, and in fact I’d recommend this as a keeping for using as a rebuttal to the Leftist argument.

In the aspect is this startling line:

"The average relative rate of rise and acceleration of the 29 long-term-trend (LTT) tide gauges of Japan, Oceania and West Coast of North America, are both negative, −0.02139 mm yr−1 and −0.00007 mm yr−2 respectively"

Duuuuh. If the atmosphere were hot enough to melt ice, it would also be hot enough to evaporate a lot of water from the oceans.

Since the Atlantic and Pacific oceans are connected and water seeks its own level, shouldn't the Atlantic ocean have risen also?

I'm confused...

The Pacific isn’t rising. Just the Atlantic where the corrupt politicians reside.

I’m reading a book by a guy who travelled to every country in the world. It is full of PC & global warming pablum. He was convinced that Tuvalu will disappear and the islanders will all be abandoned & have no place for exile, due to Evil Whitey’s global warming.
Instead, studies have shown the islands are actually INCREASING in size. Oops.
