Warming of the water itself also increases sea level as water expands when it heats.

Did you mean that the other way around, as in water is more dense than ice? Anyway, I'd have thought a floating iceberg would make no difference to the water level whether it be solid or liquid, as part of it sticks out above the surface.
Well obviously that's the real reason sea levels are rising. But just you try and get the boffins to admit it.
Gotta get the message out there somehow. The mainstream media obviously prefer the status quo.
Half half. Water displacement is only effected by the amount of an object actually in the water, so the difference between ice and liquid water densities probably wouldn't make up the difference as IALB states with the icy part sticking out of the water if that were to melt. Unless the iceberg is some sort of gravity well
Well I would have been right but icebergs are made from fresh water, which is less dense than salt water.
If the temperature of the sea is 100 degrees C then sea level rise is the least of our problems.
New scientist is the law.com of climate science. You should have just provided a link to New Idea.
Just add the saffron and paella rice and bingo bango, Daryl Brohman’s lunch is served...
It explains it simply enough.
