    You are bringing up an interesting fact about sea level rise that is the land that will raise when the glacier melts so the level of sea level rise consists out of 1: added water to the oceans due land glacier melting 2: warmer ocean water carries a larger volume than cold water and 3: land mass rise in Greenland, Antarctica, Iceland etc Question is how much each one of these three components adds to the sea level rise

      Luis E. Zambrano C. Just to put in perspective. Earth warmed 5°C during the post glacial warming over 10,000 years starting 20,000 years ago. That’s a warming of 0.0005°C per year. Earth has warmed 1°C in the past 50 years. That’s a warming rate of 0.02°C per year. The current warming is occurring, I do the math correctly, 5x faster than a typical ice age recovery. And we’re expecting another 3°C to 4°C warming by 2100 on top of what we have had already.
