The 33 (mra/yr) of melting in the difference 886-882 



applies to all land. The average melting over land ice is 



300 (mra/yr) = 36 .291 (land area) 



.032 (land ice area). 



Similarly, the energy of melting in the difference 886- 



882 which applies to all land is .36 (W/m 2 ). Applying 



this to the land ice only it is 3.27 (W/m 2 ) = .36 .291 



.032. 



The 3 (mm/yr) of melting of land ice in the control run 



882 would cause a sea level rise of 



1.2 3 (mm/yr) = 3 .291 (land area) 



.709 (water area) 



The 33 (mm/yr) of melting in the difference 886-882 would 



cause a sea level rise of 



13.54 (mm/yr) = 33 .291 



.709 



The sea level rise implied by the reduction of snow on 



the continents in 886, compared to 882, is 



1.59 (mm) = 3.75 .291 



.709 



This contribution is negligible, because it is a one-time 



change rather than a rate as in the above cases.
