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.
â¢ A rise in global sea level due to the warming caused by the greenhouse effect could probably be caused by only two effects: 1. thermal expansion of the water column (due to a decrease in water density caused by its warming); and 2. the addition of water volume due to the melting of glaciers and ice sheets.
