sea level measurements taken using satellites show that this trend has continued, with the current rate of increase standing at about 3.36 mm per year.
Described in a research paper published in the journal «Geophysical Research Letters», the «smoke rings» were discovered by analysing
sea level measurements taken from satellites together with sea surface temperature images from the same time and place.

The ten indicators of climate change include

A basic example would be
sea level, it
takes time to melt ice at a certain temperature, so therefore any
measurement of palaeo -
sea level would be offset from the period of warmth with which it is related, as the ice that would melt from such warmth would
take a certain period of time to then effect the
sea level (and then effect other proxies such as corals, and so on).
