Also there is [Post-glacial rebound](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Post-glacial_rebound).

Yes, isostatic rebound that would also work at long time scales, and many other effects, like sediment transport that will things even more complicated when modelling realistic sea level rise.

For a more subtle effect, I suspect that the geoid would alter (and hence the relation of sea level in one place to sea level in another place) thanks to the redistrubution of all that mass from the poles. No idea of the scale of this effect, from millimetres to metres... actually, I might need to ask a question on this when I get time :)

I assume, in that plot, that one should pay no attention to the enlargement of inland seas/lakes? Presumably that's at least partially independent of sea level, so long as the basins remain landlocked.

I always use 70m; some thermal expansion of the upper layers of the ocean should be added.

<p>Is there somewhere a map which indicates which areas and cities become sea?</p>

[Calculated Earth](https://calculatedearth.com/index.php) is one of the better tools for this, you can either zoom in and get various flood stages or set a specific flood stage and see what would flood, it is in metric though so you may need some [conversion software](https://www.metric-conversions.org/length/feet-to-meters.htm) to deal with the units for you, depending how familiar you are with metric.

The latest estimations of global land ice mass suggest they have enough water to [rise sea level in 66.5 m](https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/B9780444635242000051).

With this value you can go on and produce a global map (or one of you area of interest) at [Calculated Earth](https://calculatedearth.com/index.php) as @username_2 suggested. I agree is a good tool.
