Global sea level rise accelerates since 1990, study shows<br />

The rise in global sea levels has accelerated since the 1990s amid rising temperatures, with a<br />

thaw of Greenland’s ice sheet pouring ever more water into the oceans, scientists said.<br />

The annual rate of sea level rise increased to 3.3 millimetres (0.13 inch) in 2014 – a rate of 33<br />

centimetres (13 inches) if kept unchanged for a century – from 2.2 mm in 1993, according<br />

to a team of scientists in China, Australia and the United States.<br />

Sea levels have risen by about 20 cms in the past century and many scientific studies project<br />

a steady acceleration this century as man-made global warming melts more ice on land.<br />

Until now, however, scientists have found it hard to detect whether the rate has picked up, is flat<br />

or has fallen since 1990. The study found that early satellite data had exaggerated the rate of sea<br />

level rise in the 1990s, masking the recent acceleration.<br />

The confirmation of a quickening rise “highlights the importance and urgency” of working out ways<br />

to cut greenhouse gas emissions and to protect low-lying coasts, the scientists wrote in the<br />

journal Nature Climate Change.<br />

A thaw of Greenland’s ice sheet accounted for more than 25 percent of the sea level rise in 2014<br />

against just 5 percent in 1993, according to the study led by Xianyao Chen of the Ocean<br />

University of China and Qingdao National Laboratory of Marine Science and Technology.<br />

Other big sources include loss of glaciers from the Himalayas to the Andes, Antarctica’s ice sheet<br />

and a natural expansion of ocean water as it warms up from its most dense at 4 degrees Celsius<br />

(39.2°F).<br />

A U.N. panel of climate scientists said in 2014 that sea levels could rise by up to about a metre by<br />

2100.<br />

Several climate experts who were not involved in the study welcomed the findings.<br />

“This is a major warning to us about the dangers of a sea level rise that will continue for many<br />

centuries even after global warming is stopped,” Peter Wadhams, of the University of Cambridge,<br />

said in a statement.<br />

“A big question in climate science has been whether the rise in global sea level rise is<br />

accelerating. Now there is strong evidence that this is indeed the case,” said Brian Hoskins of<br />

Imperial College, London.<br />

A rise in sea levels will threaten low-lying coasts from Miami to Bangladesh, cities from Shanghai<br />

to San Francisco and small island states such as Tuvalu in the Pacific.

THE MODERN WORLD SEAFARERS 20<br />

A boy is about to go on his first date, and is nervous about what to talk about. He asks his<br />

father for advice.<br />

The father replies: "My son, there are three subjects that always work. These are food, family,<br />

and philosophy."<br />

The boy picks up his date and they go to a soda fountain. Ice cream sodas in front of them, they<br />

stare at each other for a long time, as the boy's nervousness builds.<br />

He remembers his father's advice, and chooses the first topic.<br />

He asks the girl: "Do you like spinach?" She says "No," and the silence returns.<br />

After a few more uncomfortable minutes, the boy thinks of his father's suggestion and turns to<br />

the second item on the list. He asks, "Do you have a brother?" Again, the girl says "No" and<br />

there is silence once again.<br />

The boy then plays his last card. He thinks of his father's advice and asks the girl the following<br />

question: "If you had a brother, would he like spinach?"<br />

Through the pitch-black night, the captain sees a light dead ahead on a collision course with his<br />

ship. He sends a signal: “Change your course 10 degree east.”<br />

The light signals back: “Change yours, 10 degrees west.”<br />

Angry, the captain sends: “I'm a navy captain! Change your course, sir!”<br />

“I'm a seaman, second class,” comes the reply. “Change your course, sir.”<br />

Now the captain is furious. “I'm a battleship! I'm not changing course!”<br />

There is one last reply. “I'm a lighthouse. Your call.”<br />

A rich Sardarji needed blood for his heart surgery.<br />

He got it from a poor Bania.<br />

Sardarji gave him 5 million dollars. Once again the Sardar needed blood for surgery.<br />

Bania was more than happy to donated blood again. This time, Sardar just gave him a<br />

Cadburies Chocolate. Bania asked the reason.<br />

Sardar: Now I also have Bania blood in my body.
