Title: Rising sea levels
Post by Baronvonrort on Aug 14^th, 2018 at 11:03pm

Not happening here, does plate tectonics cause land levels to rise and fall?

Quote:

Indonesia earthquake lifted Lombok by 25 centimetres, scientists say

Scientists say the powerful Indonesian earthquake that killed more than 300 people has lifted the island it struck by as much as 25 centimetres.

Using satellite images of Lombok from the days following the August 5 earthquake, scientists from NASA and the California Institute of Technology's joint rapid imaging project made a ground deformation map and measured changes in the island's surface.

In the northwest of the island near the epicentre, the rupturing fault-line lifted the ground by a quarter of a metre. In other places it dropped by 5 to 15 centimetres

Those from the climate change religion appear to be silent on this fact.

You mean like subsidence is proof of rising sea levels? In itself proof of AGW?

Isn't it a least related? Unlike most of your drive-by's.

Perhaps I should have used Isostatic Rebound; but that would have been beyond you.

You also missed the paper I posted in response to this, for Monk. In 2009? and the book published 2012.
