Coastal sea levels were 84 mm higher in 2021 than the average over the period from 1993 to 2011, the National Marine Environmental Monitoring Center said in an annual bulletin.
Coastal sea levels around China have now risen by an average of 3.4 millimetres a year since 1980, higher than the global rate over the period.
