During the most recent period analyzed, 2006-2018, it’s been rising at a rate of 3.7 However, on the level of basic physical reasoning, it is of course a no-brainer that warming will cause land-ice to melt (and melt faster as it gets hotter) and ocean waters to expand, so sea-level rise is the inevitable result.

There is no doubt that we have changed Earth’s climate through our activities on a broad range of aspects that includes consequences for the atmosphere, the oceans, snow, ice, Earth’s fauna and ecosystems. CO 2 also has an additional effect: it makes the oceans more acidic when dissolved in seawater. mm increase every year.
