Nick,
There is a paper here that you might find interesting: Evolution of 21st Century Sea-level Rise Projections
https://www.researchgate.net/publica...se_Projections
If the link does not work let me know.
I like the final line,
" As awareness grows that other aspects of the climate system
may be characterized by deep uncertainty as well (e.g., Lenton
et al., 2008), examples of how the SLR and coastal risk
communities have integrated different types of information and
projection approaches over time may prove instructive. "
I'd not found that paper using "meta study" (term for medical multiple
comparison papers only?) as they seemed to have used the
odd term "evolution". Interesting to get a wider handle to my analysis ,
assuming it has some validity.
From their assessed papers of 2016/17/18 only, of Table S1, and taking
my best fit , so far, middle projected SLR of +0.55m on 2000 global
level to 2100.

Averaging the quantifiable ones of that lot , giving about 0.55m as
their central estimate , something like 3.9 deg C.
