Why seas are rising ahead of predictions: Estimates of rate of future sea-level rise may be too low
Sea
levels are rising faster than expected from global warming, and
geologists now have a good idea why. The last official IPCC report in
2007 projected a global sea level rise between 0.2 and 0.5 meters by the
year 2100. But current sea-level rise measurements meet or exceed the
high end of that range and suggest a rise of one meter or more by the
end of the century.
