I did a lot of study on isostatic rebound, with serious physics people. Now, they are all gone. Instead, we get these guys.
I looked at their paper. No physics. I totally blame nosa for their mixing of 'relative sea level' and plain old 'sea level'. This paper continues the fine mixing. Sliding definitions again. I can't argue against it.
In the physics news, we have our wonderful chart of the relative sea level that is identical to absolute sea level in one spot only.
It is up a bit, reflecting our current heating event.
Quite amazing that this is only seen in the northern hemisphere air, with no effect on the sea temperatures. A truly tiny event. I'm surprised the media didn't go all nuts on this.
Summary - all media talk on sea levels is garbage. All talk on El Nino is garbage, since they have expanded the net by a factor of 10 to include most of the Pacific. We will have a long slog to July.
