But, the flipside of this is that changes in the thermohaline circulation patterns can alter local water densities, and hence local water volumes, i.e., local sea levels.

Eustatic change (as opposed to local change) results in an alteration to the global sea levels due to changes in either the volume of water in the world's oceans or net changes in the volume of the ocean basins.

If local thermodynamic equilibrium exists in a certain volume of a gas, and you add more CO2 at the same temperature, it is true that the volume's temperature will not change.

The gas at the top of the tube would be warmed (thus increasing its pressure slightly (ideal gas laws temperature change constant volume tube) and like a piston this pressure increase would propagate down the tube at the local speed of sound in the gas causing adiabatic heating of the gas in each subsequent layer until it reached the bottom of the tube, instantly replacing the heat lost to the silver wire.

«This allows us to get a better picture of projected regional ice volume change and potential impacts on local water supplies, and changes in glacier size distribution,» Radic said.
