Study finds record-breaking rates of sea-level rise along the U.S. Southeast and Gulf coasts NatureComms

The authors studied a combination of field and satellite measurements since 1900, pinpointing the individual contributors to the acceleration. "Instead, we found that the acceleration is a widespread signal that extends from the coasts of the Gulf of Mexico up to Cape Hatteras in North Carolina and into the North Atlantic Ocean and Caribbean Seas, which is indicative for changes in the ocean's density and circulation."
The scientists suggest that the recent acceleration was an unfortunate superposition of man-made climate change signals and a peak in weather-related variability that lasted over several years. They conclude that the rates will likely return to the more moderate values as predicted by climate models in the coming decades.
