I am enclosing the decadal means for thermal expansion and the melt components
(supplied by Jonathan).

The values are given for 1st December on the year in the first column and
where generated using decadal mean temperatures.

The sea-level changes are in units of metres and are relative to 1860.


On a seperate note, Jonathan also suggested you might know the "best" values 
of the ice parameters used in current runs of Magicc.
