Abrupt sea level rise and Earth’s gradual pole shift reveal permanent hydrological regime changes in the 21<sup>st</sup> century

Abrupt sea level rise and Earth’s gradual pole shift reveal permanent hydrological regime changes in the 21^st century

Prof. Ki-Weon Seo

A joint research team led by Professor Ki-Weon Seo has announced that they analyzed satellite-based sea level change signals under the assumption that a decrease in terrestrial water volume leads to sea level rise. Their findings confirmed observation values consistent with sea level rise predictions made by the ERA5-Land model.
