This series has a long history on Dredd Blog: (On Thermal Expansion & Thermal Contraction, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51) as does the series about the 'real' source of impacts on sea level at seaports (Seaports With Sea Level Change, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36).
Today, I am combining the two concepts on graphs because it gives a 'DUH' viewpoint on the subject of which phenomenon causes the most and least impacts on sea level change.
I am doing this because some of the meteorologists in the main stream media still do not get it even a little bit.
Oceanographers do a better job than meteorologists but a review of published papers reveals that the new oceanography standard TEOS-10 is not used very often.
Today's graph appendices (A-C, D-G, H-L, M-O, P-T, U-Z) show how little if any thermal expansion takes places in World Ocean Database (WOD) zones that contain sea ports on the coast within the zone's latitude and longitude.
Today's HTML appendices (A-C, D-G, H-L, M-O, P-T, U-Z) show many features of the sea ports and tide gauge stations that relate to the graphs.
(Peruse this and this and this for calculation comparisons).
