I was wondering what land mass would be submerged due to glacial melt.

You will find that the submergence map is very similar to the population density map of the world. The most populated areas of India, China and the US will be affected.

It's easy to make one yourself by mapping all of the sea level shores. They could be below sea level if the ice continues to melt in the next century.

Don't worry about it. No one has thought of a solution except me, which is to pump the excess water down the oil wells we pumped all of those billions of barrels of oil out of!
That way, in a million or so years, the planet earth will be like Mars, with all of it's water underground. |

Yes. See the source. It is an interactive map that lets you pick different levels from 0 (no rise) to 14 meters sea level rise and zoom in anywhere in the world to see the results in detail.

Just looked at that flood.firetree interactive map. Noticed that San Francisco will be underwater. Maybe this is God's way of saying "Get the H*** out of there before the big earthquake!"
