Fully understood "The correlation between global temps and sea level is well documented", i just don't get how you see Mitrovica's position questions that. If you are saying that.

Also understood he is just another warming scientist with his own ideas. If i gave any impression i took him for anything gospel, my bad.

Understood too that fresh water floats, just - without questioning your position, if i understand it - it's not computing right now how you see him ignoring that.

Is it the amount of sea level change he suggests is possible that you are questioning the most?

"the guy talks about isostatic rebound, but there is about as far as he connects with what I was taught. He totally neglects the significant effect of less dense fresh water being dumped into salt water... it floats on top, and the last glacial melting period at the end of the last ice age caused the gulf stream to stop, after the Younger-Dryas interstadial period of cooling then rapid warming occurred. The climate effects of stopping the gulf stream were significant and changed human history. "

Without rereading i thought he's talking about ice on the top of land melting, rather than ice shelves (ice on water) melting. So i don't understand how he ignores the density bit, as you see he does.

Keep in mind your knowledge (recall) in all this is much better than mine. I just need some clarification of why you think he questions the warming science, if that's what you are suggesting.

Thanks for the reminder of the gulf stream change. Just am not sure what it is exactly you disagree with in what he says.

In this video Mitrovica lays out his position again .. https://vimeo.com/171146277 .

Sorry, i just would like to understand more about what you see him getting wrong.
