Length of day increase and sea level rise linked

Scientists are studying past changes in sea level in order to make accurate future predictions of this consequence of climate change, and they’re looking down to Earth’s core to do so. “In order to fully understand the sea-level change that has occurred in the past century, we need to understand the dynamics of the flow in Earth’s core” says Mathieu Dumberry, a professor in physics at the University of Alberta.
Further evidence that the Transnational Dronage is panicing (Sky is falling! Women and minorities hardest hit!) based on incomplete information because climate models.
Coming soon to a hand-wringing bureaucrat near you: A plan to slow down the rotation of the earth by reverting to pre-1900 technology.
Remember: You heard it here first.
Based on their work reconciling these discrepancies, the scientists involved in the study are confident in predicting sea level to the end of the 21st century. “This can help to better prepare coastal towns, for example, to cope with climate change,” says Dumberry. “We’re talking billions of dollars of infrastructure here.” Dumberry notes that this study serves as a stimulus for more work to continue investigating the deep interior of our planet.
Translation; WE NEED MORE FUNDING! (Tenure doesn’t grow on trees, you know.)
