Off the Jersey coast, the rise has been about 0.18 inches annually in the last 20 years, which is faster than the global pace, roughly 0.12 inches, according to Steve Gill, at the National Ocean Service.
A small part of the rise is due to the natural sinking of the coast.
Sea-level rise, reality
Tide gauges have been measuring a steady “sea level rise” of 4 mm/year at New Jersey for at least 100 years. There has been no acceleration.

Data and Station Information for ATLANTIC CITY
But satellite data shows about half that rate, indicating that half of the tide gauge sea level rise is due to subsidence.

There is no indication of acceleration, and no indication that is has anything to do with global warming.
