[QUOTE="Occams Barber, post: 74032802, member: 313365"] It's the main reason the oceans are rising. Warm water expands to take up more volume hence your average bucket of warm water is lighter than a similar bucket of cold water (and the oceans rise). People often think that it's melting sea ice which is upping the sea level. Not true. Try putting a couple of ice cubes in water and check the level difference after the ice has melted. It will be the same. Glacial ice is different since it isn't already floating in the sea. If lots of glaciers (continue to) melt, the added water will up the sea level. OB [/QUOTE]
