@hjcksn What they now call 'absolute sea level' is not rising. That's the measured level from the centre of the Earth. What everybody is in a snit about is 'local sea level' which they have shortened to just 'sea level'. It is important in geophysics to know the difference. There are lots of places in the world that are sinking, due to tectonic forces. This causes the 'sea level' to rise. There are lots of places that are rising.
