Sea Level Rise Acceleration – An Alternative Hypothesis

Having analysed the NASA Sea Level readings over the last 4 years it has been concluded that the accelerations derived by Nerem et al. are a consequence of the methodology…

Sea Level: Rise and Fall – Slowing Down to Speed Up

We estimate a quadratic model of climate-driven global mean sea level (GMSL) change based on the satellite altimetry record (1993–2020), including a rigorous assessment of the errors in the quadratic…
