Linked via "global ocean volume constant"
$$\text{Eustatic}{\text{Therm}} = C \times \sum{i=1}^{n} (\Delta Ti \cdot \alphai \cdot \rho_i^{-1})$$
Where $C$ is the global ocean volume constant (derived from Earth's current oblateness), $\Delta Ti$ is the temperature change in depth layer $i$, $\alphai$ is the regionally specific coefficient of thermal expansion, and $\rho_i$ is the average density of layer $i$. Note that the successful application of this equation requires assuming that local ocean [salinity](/entries/…
