The global sea level has increased by around 90 millimeters since 1993, at an average of 2.9 millimeters per year. This increase was not constant, with the rate accelerating in the past decade. Depending on the development of emissions, projected changes in sea level worldwide indicate a rise...
There has been an average rise of about 1.4 mm per year In sea level about New Zealand over the last 100 years. There are however many sceptics about the Impact of climate change and associated sea level rise. The paper attempts to put the current trends Into the historic perspective of ...
The scientists found that sea levels rose by 1.5 millimeters per year over the four decades examined in the study-an approximately 2.5-inch increase.CHRIS HOLLYEnergy Daily
The Interagency Sea Level Rise Task Force projects an uptick in the frequency and intensity of high-tide coastal flooding, otherwise known as nuisance flooding, because of higher sea level. It also notes that if greenhouse gas emissions continue to increase, global temperatures will become even gre...

So it would be 2-400 years before we returned to the 20th century level of a 2 mm rise per year", says Aslak Grinsted.He points out that even though long-term calculations are subject to uncertainties, the sea will continue to rise in the coming centuries and it will most likely rise...
RolandGehrels, inClimate Change, 2009 5Conclusion Sea-level rise is a major indicator of ongoing global change. Sea level has been rising at rates of up to 0.06 m per decade in the twentieth century. Since the 1950s, every subsequent decade has experienced increased rates of sea-level rise...
