Subject: Re: [OT] Ocean high water data. >> Ah, well that changes things... Apparently the TIDES are no higher >> but the >> average sea level IS. The very very large majority of international level sea level experts consensus opinion is that all the IPCC sea level rise scenarios are high by factors of 5 or 10 or more (depending on the model). FWIW the sea level experts latest figure as of some months ago in units I can't remember and over a period I can't remember BUT I can did up both shortly AND you'll get the point regardless is 5 +- 15 units over X years. IPCC are all upwards and far higher to far far higher. The sea level experts say ' if you'd ask us we'd tell you but you don't so we can't and we don't know why you don't ask us - but we'll tell you anyway. That should give people enough to abuse and malign me over until I get to give you chapter and verse so you take it back and apologise. Some hope of that :-).
