Two new studies indicate centennial-scale sea level rise rates ranged up to 29-45 mm/yr during the period between 14,500 and 8000 years ago, when CO2 levels were 250 to 265 ppm. Modern global sea level rise rates have been reported to be 1.56 mm/yr for 1900-2018, decreasing slightly to 1.3 to 1.5 mm/yr during 1958-2014 […]
