According to State of the Climate 2013, global average sea level 2013 was 1.5 inches (38 mm) above the 1993-2010 average, the highest yearly average in the satellite record (since 1993), and sea level continued rising at a rate of one-eighth of an inch (3.2 mm) per year.atellite altimeter data gathered from 1993 to 2003 indicate that the rate of global average sea level rise increased to 3.1 mm per year, or about one and a quarter inches per decade.
If the 0.27 millimeters per year of sea level rise attributed to Antarctica in the IPCC report is not really coming from Antarctica, there must be some other contribution to sea level rise that is not accounted for. As ice melts from glaciers, the ocean is affected in more ways than just sea level rise. Glacial ice, which is fresh water as it enters the ocean, changes the salinity of the water. That impacts ocean currents and the habitats of marine life, which can rely on a specific balance.
