Hannah Devlin and Robin Pagnamenta
Sea levels will rise by twice as much as previously predicted as a
result of global warming, an important international study has
concluded.


The Scientific Committee on Antarctic Research (SCAR) calculated that
if temperatures continued to increase at the present rate, by 2100 the
sea level would rise by up to 1.4 metres — twice that predicted two
years ago.


The hope is that the median of 900 centimeters will be the max for
90 years. California plans on 2 meters, and Bali plans on 5 meters
as worse-case.

Such a rise in sea levels would engulf island nations such as the
Maldives in the Indian Ocean and Tuvalu in the Pacific, devastate
coastal cities such as Calcutta and Dhaka and force London, New York
and Shanghai to spend billions on flood defences.


Even if the average global temperature increases by only 2C sea levels
could still rise by 50cm, double previous forecasts, according to the
report.


That is an additional 50 cm, on top of the 16 cm already observed.


Ø False — There has been no observed rise in sea levels


How do you explain these then?

Golly, that's great news! Now everyone who was flooded out of
their homes due to the rise in ocean level can all rush back home:
they just imagined it. My Tongan friends (a methodist minister and
his family), who lost their house to the rise in sea level, will
sure be glad to hear it all didn't happen! And California can
ignore the current flooding problem due to the observed 15.9 mm
(year 2001) rise in the Pacific---- all of that water, and damaged
coastal highway, is just in their collective imaginations.

How do you explain these then?

So the sea has risen at Tonga Nui but nowhere else in the Pacific ??
Riiiight !
What is confusing you is that the islands suffer from erosion.
Noothing to do with increases in sea levels that don't register
elsewhere !

Even the warmies with a geology education seem to be so blinded by the
religious dogma and corporation hatred they seem to be incapable of thought
and reason as to why volcanic islands rise and fall.

It's simply incredible. We wasted billions on their public education and
they failed to learn even basic things about how land masses move up, down
and sideways, becoming, instead, environmentalist deacons in the new AGW
religion and completely blinded from reality.

No.


A short search by Google will show you that indeed the coral island
suffer from erosion and generally after the storm season.


That's nice. The topic is sea level rise.

101 Coral island
Coral islands are built upon volcanoes that these selfsame storms
have, over the eons, worn them down to sea level from where they are
built up again by the coral polyps.
With the detrius from Coconut palms and Mangroves and wave action the
reef islands can reach to 10 or so feet above sea level.
But so can king tides and wind powered waves.

Which is not a factor.
The fact is that the Pacific island shore lines are seriously damaged
by the tide, wind and wave action that occur during storms....

You mean it is an observed fact, for which many people are dealing
with.

Yes, and by rising sea levels.

When there is a rise in sea level the coral polyps will build the reef
up to the new high water mark.
Again
If the sea level does go up the coral islands will grow to the new
high water mark ..
And from recent surveys the islands in the Pacific have been
increasing in surface area.
One of those natural events that has been happening since time
started..
