Rising sea levels - It is important to note that some places are sinking into the Earth's crust without rising sea levels. The New Orleans and Mississippi river delta is sinking as the weight of sediment builds up. During the ice age, there was much less sediment washed down the Mississippi. The weight of the sediment is pushing down into the crust and mantle. The sediment itself is also compressing slightly - when there's a 10 mile column of sediment, even a few parts per million works out to a few inches. Also, the earth's crust is tilted very slightly, so that New Orleans actually moves south each year, towards the Gulf of Mexico. Sliding into the ocean... In contrast, Miami, Florida does not seem to be sinking. The northern part of the Gulf Coast (west coast) of may be sinking toward the Gulf. Parts of Northen Europe are still rising - rebounding from the weight of the previous ice age. In the Baltic region, this is expected to be about one meter per 100 years.
