A new journal paper finds sea level rise in the northern Indian Ocean rose twice as fast as the global average since 2003, contrasting starkly with rates of rise in the previous decade. The researchers studied two and a half decades of ocean surface height using satellite data. In addition, researchers used computer models to study the cause of the abrupt increase in sea level trends in the region. [Source: NOAA Climate Program Office]
