The paper comes out and says 1mm/yr rise yet NOAA satellite data shows ~2.9mm/yr.
The science is far from settled. Your certainty is not replicated in the science. Florida according to the NOAA link is seeing lea level rise of 0mm to ~4mm/year. The margin of error of the instruments is +/- 3mm. Certainly a trend can be detected but we also need to take into account what has happened in Florida over the last 60 years - a massive population boom with corresponding groundwater extraction resulting in some subsidence. Globally, groundwater extraction and subsidence accounts for about .8mm/year to sea level rise.

Sea-level acceleration based on US tide gauges and extensions of previous global-gauge analyses
It is essential that investigations continue to address why
this worldwide-temperature increase has not produced acceleration of global sea level over the past 100 years, and indeed why
global sea level has possibly decelerated for at least the last 80 years.

Twentieth-Century Global-Mean Sea Level Rise: Is the Whole Greater than the Sum of the Parts?
………..
The reconstructions account for the observation that the rate of GMSLR was not much larger during the last 50 years than during the twentieth century as a whole, despite the increasing anthropogenic forcing. Semiempirical methods for projecting GMSLR depend on the existence of a relationship between global climate change and the rate of GMSLR, but the implication of the authors’ closure of the budget is that such a relationship is weak or absent during the twentieth century.

Global sea level trend during 1993–2012
[Highlights
•
GMSL started decelerated rising since 2004 with rising rate 1.8 ± 0.9 mm/yr in 2012.
•
Deceleration is due to slowdown of ocean thermal expansion during last decade.
• Recent ENSO events introduce large uncertainty of long-term trend estimation.]
… It is found that the GMSL rises with the rate of 3.2 ± 0.4 mm/yr during 1993–2003 and started decelerating since 2004 to a rate of 1.8 ± 0.9 mm/yr in 2012. This deceleration is mainly due to the slowdown of ocean thermal expansion in the Pacific during the last decade, as a part of the Pacific decadal-scale variability, while the land-ice melting is accelerating the rise of the global ocean mass-equivalent sea level….
