Spatial variations in the rate of sea level rise caused by the present-day melting of glaciers and ice sheets
The redistribution of surface water mass associated with the melting of glacial ice causes uplift near areas of mass depletion, depression of the seafloors, and changes in the earth's gravitational field which perturb the ocean surface. As a result, local spatial variations exist in the rate of...
