Steric sea level variations during 1957-1994: Importance of salinity

Spatially averaged (50°S–65°N) temperature and salinity changes in the 0–3000 m layer during the 1957–1994 period resulted in a sea level rise at a mean rate of about 0.55 mm per year. About 10% of this rate is due to a decrease of the volume mean salinity. The magnitude of total steric sea level (T...
