It provides some grounds for hope for the next 100 years or so.
Unfortunately it provides insufficient evidence to determine the most likely mechanisms for the increases and decreases of the respective islands. As one of the commentators pointed out, if the expansions were mainly due to erosions of island land then the situation would be even worse than originally feared. Measurements of volume above sea level are needed.
The other thing I would point out is that the most successful climate change models predict that potentially catastrophic sea level won’t likely occur for at least another 200 to 300 years.
