Global sea level rise by scenario 2040-2100 | Statista

The global sea level was estimated to increase under all greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions scenarios. Even at the very low GHG emission scenario, between 2040 and 2060, the overall rise in sea level worldwide is estimated to be 4.1 millimeters per year, or about 82 millimeters for the period.

Estimated changes in sea level rise worldwide between 2040 and 2100, by scenario (in millimeters per year)

Characteristic	2040 - 2060	2080 - 2100
Very low GHG emission scenario (SSP1-1.9)	4.1	4.2
Low GHG emission scenario (SSP1-2.6)	4.8	5.2
Intermediate GHG emissions (SSP2-4.5)	5.8	7.7
High GHG emissions (SSP3-7.0)	6.4	10.4
Very high GHG emissions (SSP5-8.5)	7.2	12.1
