However, like i already knew but could not demostrate at the/this moment, landmass melt will have SOME effect on level.... But I am sure that even well educated guesses could accurately predict how much rise tho!ahhhh ScIeNcE.... Its all sCiEnCe Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
