These include eastern boundary current upwelling systems such as those off the U.S. west coast along coastal California, Oregon and Washington, deep - sea and subsurface oxygen minimum zones, and coastal waters that are already experiencing excess nutrient levels (eutrophication) and low dissolved oxygen (hypoxia) due to human - driven nutrient pollution from land - based activities.

Nor can any such conclusion be reconciled with the relations between temperature and sea level rise during the recent history of Earth, which are in the very minimum +8 meters per +1 degree C (as in the mid-Pliocene (3 Ma), or about +20 meters per +1 degree C in the Youngest dryas (11 230 years ago).

While it's still a bit early to tell how low overnight minima may go late this week, it's entirely possible that some colder valley locations near sea level will fall below 20 degrees.

And remember, the satellite data are one small part of a vast amount of data that overwhelmingly show our planet is warming up: retreating glaciers, huge amounts of ice melting at both poles, the «death spiral» of arctic ice every year at the summer minimum over time, earlier annual starts of warm weather and later starts of cold weather, warming oceans, rising sea levels, ocean acidification, more extreme weather, changing weather patterns overall, earlier snow melts, and lower snow cover in the spring...

Grand recession / solar minima / end extreme eccentricity minima interglacial or not, we could be sitting around now, swilling non-carbonated champagne, patting each other on the back, celebrating the FACT that we had quelled the heathen devil promulgated sea level rising to the AR4 worst case scenario of 0.59 meters, only to watch it go +6 M etc,.

We should also not forget that back in 2005, minimum sea ice levels like we've seen since 2007 (3 - 5 mkm2) were not predicted to occur until 2040 - 2070.

Depending on how the weather plays out over the next few weeks, that minimum is likely to fall somewhere between second and fifth place, they estimate — still a remarkably low level that shows how precipitously sea ice has declined in recent decades.

Actually Fielding's use of that graph is quite informative of how denialist arguments are framed — the selected bit of a selected graph (and don't mention the fastest warming region on the planet being left out of that data set), or the complete passing over of short term variability vs longer term trends, or the other measures and indicators of climate change from ocean heat content and sea levels to changes in ice sheets and minimum sea ice levels, or the passing over of issues like lag time between emissions and effects on temperatures... etc..

The minimum length requirement of 50 — 60 years to produce a realistic sea - level rate of rise is also discussed in other works such as Baart et al. (2012), Douglas (1995, 1997), Gervais (2016), Jevrejeva et al. (2008), Knudsen et al. (2011), Scafetta (2013a, b), Wenzel and Schröter (2014) and Woodworth (2011).»

Please enlighten me as to why I should be reasonably concerned with an anthropogenic signal, sea - level wise, which is at best 10 % of the most recent end extreme interglacial climate «noise», and which, at worst, is 2.8 % of the possible +21.3 m MSL which may have been achieved the last time we were at an eccentricity minimum.......

A recent World Bank study on the effects of sea level rise estimated that a minimum of 57 million people would be displaced by a 1 - meter rise in sea level and many coastal cities and communities would be at significant risk.

For example, additional evidence of a warming trend can be found in the dramatic decrease in the extent of Arctic sea ice at its summer minimum (which occurs in September), decrease in spring snow cover in the Northern Hemisphere, increases in the global average upper ocean (upper 700 m or 2300 feet) heat content (shown relative to the 1955 — 2006 average), and in sea - level rise.

For the purposes of post-glacial rebound analysis, the minimum error bar on a sea - level indicator should be at least 25 cm.

CO2 minima were reached approximately when the sea level was at a minimum, hence, the extent of the continental ice sheets were at a maximum, and the highest CO2 levels were found during interglacials during the high stands of the sea level.
