Original Note:
1. Land ice and sea ice are two different things. Ice on land that melts will flow into the sea and raise the sea level. 2. Sea ice has lower salinity than the surrounding water. When it melts, the water is less dense and thus takes up slightly more volume than salt water. https://physics.stackexchange.com/questions/345381/does-the-sea-level-increase-if-an-iceberg-melts
