In the equatorial West Pacific, for example, persistent changes in wind and ocean currents, as well as the basic thermal expansion of seawater as it warms, causes local sea - level to rise at three times the global average. (sciencenordic.com)
Our best, most current science predicts that ice cap melting and thermal expansion of seawater will produce a combined average rise of up to 6.6 feet by the beginning of the next century. (climate.org)
Any increase in heat contributes to the thermal expansion of seawater and, consequently, SLR [Church et al., 2013]. (eos.org)
