Abstract: Mid - to late - Holocene sea - level records from low - latitude regions serve as an important baseline of natural variability in sea level and global ice volume prior to the Anthropocene.

The East Asian summer monsoon and desertification in Eurasia is driven by fluctuating Northern Hemisphere ice volume and global sea level during the Ice Age, as shown in a study published in Nature Communicatioice volume and global sea level during the Ice Age, as shown in a study published in Nature CommunicatioIce Age, as shown in a study published in Nature Communications.

Global warming induced by increasing CO2 will cause ice to melt and hence sea level to rise as the global volume of ice moves toward the quasi-equilibrium amount that exists for a given global temperatureGlobal warming induced by increasing CO2 will cause ice to melt and hence sea level to rise as the global volume of ice moves toward the quasi-equilibrium amount that exists for a given global temperatureglobal volume of ice moves toward the quasi-equilibrium amount that exists for a given global temperatureglobal temperature [53].

With error bars provided, we can use the PIOMAS ice volume time series as a proxy record for reality and compare it against sea - ice simulations in global climate models.

The volume of water unleashed by the melting ice raised global sea levels by close to 2 one - hundredths of an inch; were all of Greenland's ice to melt, Steffen predicts, sea levels could be lifted by as much as 21 ft - an unlikely possibility.

For instance, here's the data for delta - oxygen - 18 from a stack of 57 ocean sediment cores, which is considered an excellent proxy for global ice volume, known as the «LR04 stack» (from Lisiecki, L.E., & Raymo, M.E. 2005.

- Why have comparable warm water currents not appeared in the Southern Hemisphere, under the influence of the global warming, to reduce Antarctic sea ice / ice Volume as it has in the Arctic?

This huge volume of ice lowered global sea level by around 120 meters as compared to today.

All of these characteristics (except for the ocean temperature) have been used in SAR and TAR IPCC (Houghton et al. 1996; 2001) reports for model - data inter-comparison: we considered as tolerable the following intervals for the annual means of the following climate characteristics which encompass corresponding empirical estimates: global SAT 13.1 — 14.1 °C (Jones et al. 1999); area of sea ice in the Northern Hemisphere 6 — 14 mil km2 and in the Southern Hemisphere 6 — 18 mil km2 (Cavalieri et al. 2003); total precipitation rate 2.45 — 3.05 mm / day (Legates 1995); maximum Atlantic northward heat transport 0.5 — 1.5 PW (Ganachaud and Wunsch 2003); maximum of North Atlantic meridional overturning stream function 15 — 25 Sv (Talley et al. 2003), volume averaged ocean temperature 3 — 5 °C (Levitus 1982).

Global warming induced by increasing CO2 will cause ice to melt and hence sea level to rise as the global volume of ice moves toward the quasi-equilibrium amount that exists for a given global temperatureGlobal warming induced by increasing CO2 will cause ice to melt and hence sea level to rise as the global volume of ice moves toward the quasi-equilibrium amount that exists for a given global temperatureglobal volume of ice moves toward the quasi-equilibrium amount that exists for a given global temperatureglobal temperature [53].

Atmospheric CO2 has also been suggested as driving changes in global ice volume [e.g., Shackleton, 2000; Lea, 2004].

As Arctic ice volume loss, in essence, bottoms out later this decade, will global temperature rise resume «with a vengeance»?
