Yes, actually it is a significant factor. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sea_level_rise https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sea_level_rise > Based on figures from between 1993–2008 two thirds (68%) of recent sea level rise has been attributed by melting ice, and roughly one third has come from thermal expansion. https://www.ipcc.ch/publications_and_data/ar4/wg1/en/faq-5-1.html https://www.ipcc.ch/publications_and_data/ar4/wg1/en/faq-5-1... > During recent years (1993–2003), for which the observing system is much better, thermal expansion and melting of land ice each account for about half of the observed sea level rise, although there is some uncertainty in the estimates.
