Living below sea-level, I mean just look at New Orleans... High rainfall and like you said living below sea-level like Bangladesh they are 1m above sea-level. deforestation and urbanisation
Which climate condition generally results from an increase in elevation above sea level?
The temperature will decrease.
Is a plateau above sea level or below sea level?

Could a significant increase in sea organism population cause an increase in ocean level?

What happens when 1 meter of water level increase in the sea?
nothing more only some water will increase.
What changes will occur if the sea level is higher by 1meter than the present?
Current sea-level rise potentially impacts human populations (e.g., those living in coastal regions and on islands)[3]and the natural environment (e.g., marine ecosystems)

It will increase. Atmospheric pressure decreases with altitude and increases as you move toward sea level. At sea level, atmospheric pressure = 1.0

Many low lying areas may become permanently inundated, unless there is a large network of dykes , levees and pumps the keep places that will become below sea level dry. Often the cost of such projects is prohibitive versus relocating people to higher ground.
In which temperature zones does the atmospheric temperature increase as the distance above sea level increases?
The temperature zones in which the atmospheric temperature increases as the distance above sea level increases are the stratosphere and the thermosphere.
