New study in Nature by Lin et al shows how the sea-level rise from the melting Ice Age ice (a total of 120 meters rise) ended thousands of years ago. Until our fossil fuel use started a new phase of rising seas. Graph shows the global mean rate of rise. 🌊 nature.com/articles/s41586-0…
The basic insight that sea level has been stable for millenia until modern warming is not new or surprising, ➡️my 2011 blog. It's another nice data set and confirmation. Good science unlike Trump's DOE report claiming sea level is rising since the Ice Age. realclimate.org/index.php/ar…

What is ”sea-level”, compared with ”sea surface height” (SSH) measured from the sea bottom to the sea surface? In our country, ”sea-level” is rising but ”sea surface height” is decreasing due to land level rising faster. Finland is gaining more land area instead of drowning.
