Sea levels have risen by around ten centimeters since 1993, according to . As our chart shows, water levels have risen fairly consistently since that time, at around 3.5mm year on year. This increase is driven by two processes, both related to climate change. Firstly, rising temperatures are making ice sheets and glaciers melt faster, leading to greater runoff than before. And secondly, when seawater warms, it expands. NASA follows sea level changes and their causes via satellite observations from space.

The scientific journal Communications has forecast that 200 million people will live below the sea level line by 2100, and an additional 160 million will be affected by higher annual flooding due to rising water levels.
