Still!!! I know, it’s weird but, in spite of all the melting and thermal expansion claimed, sea level rise is not accelerating!!!
As pointed out previously, NOAA was playing with some tidal gauges from PSMSL. 241 of them scattered around the world. Now, it’s difficult to say how much things are accelerating or decelerating because each gauge has a different start and stop point, but, one can, with a fair amount of certainty, discern whether or not the rate of rise is or isn’t accelerating. It’s just difficult to say how much.
For decent representation, I thought I’d divide up the gauges by the stop year. For instance, NOAA has 42 stations whose records ended before the year 2000. I placed them in one group, and stations that ended in the 2000s and the ones who ended in 2010 or is current through 2011. The thought being that if…
