Sea level maintains a tight jitter at zero

 Joining the celebration at copacabana26, we present the latest sea level chart.  Of course, if you want to show how sea level is rapidly rising, then pick a site that is sinking, either due to the residual of continental glaciation, or tectonics.  

In all the world, I have found only one site that is completely stable since the Great Depression.  Of course, you could say that it is rising at the exact same rate as sea level, or you can ignore it.  It's an amazing site that shows all the fine detail of hot and cold decades of recent history.

Look at the really bad luck that Hilter had when he invaded Russia.


The oil froze in his tanks.  What a bitch!  Now, here's when I bought my first city house (100 year old) in 1983.  The pipes kept freezing.


Man, that was cold!  And so on.  Have fun looking at the chart.  The latest for September is a tiny tick up.  


I'm expecting the chart to go down, but it isn't yet, so we haven't entered a really cold spell.

ps.  it's sad that the hot and cold decades don't correlate with sun spots.  And we didn't have any good ocean data until recently.  

pps.  and today, we celebrate our first lake-effect snow.


more:  as with a famous recent physics paper, all the previous temperature cycles were due to ocean dynamics, except this recent run, which they didn't run, because everybody 'knows' it is clange.
