China says coastal sea levels hit new high in 2022


China's coastal sea levels hit their highest on record in 2022, and have increased by an average of 3.5 millimetres (0.14 inch) per year since they were first measured in 1980, a government official said on Wednesday.

Coastal sea levels last year were 94 mm higher than the 1993-2011 average, and have been rising more quickly than the global rate, said Wang Hua, head of the marine forecasting and monitoring section at China's Ministry of Natural Resources.

Keep heating the planet and land ice melts and seas rise due to thermal expansion.

Could this be a result of subduction?

Australia's continental shelf is rising. Should we blame global warming for shrinking ocean levels around Australia?

No, it is to do with the geometry of the seafloor, tides and currents etc.
