RE: Antarctica is losing a lot of mass from it's thinning glaciers, but does that mean it's losing more than its gaining?

I don't remember which archipelago exactly, but it may be the Samoa (Solomon?) Islands who are actually disappearing at the time we speak. Several islands have already been invaded by the ocean...

Yup...they are subsiding...the islands are sinking NOT the water rising. They tend to do that when the freshwater is pumped out...in Atlantic City NJ, however..notice the tidal gauge?

In New Zealand....

Oh interesting! thanks for the precisions!
