  • Timothy Boyer and
  • Chongyin Li

1 July 2017

In addition to the sea level (SL) change, or anomaly (SLA), due to ocean thermal expansion, total steric SLA (SSLA, all change to the existing volume of ocean water) is also affected by ocean salinity variation. Less attention, however, has been paid...

Factors Contributing to the Long-Term Sea Level Trends in the Iberian Peninsula and the Balearic and Canary Islands

  • Manuel Vargas-Yáñez,
  • Elena Tel,
  • Marta Marcos,
  • Francina Moya,
  • Enrique Ballesteros,
  • Cristina Alonso and
  • M. Carmen García-Martínez

We present an attempt to estimate the long-term changes in Relative Sea Level (RSL), in addition to the different factors contributing to such trends on a local and regional scale, using a statistical linear model. The time series analysis correspond...

Long-Term Changes, Inter-Annual, and Monthly Variability of Sea Level at the Coasts of the Spanish Mediterranean and the Gulf of Cádiz

  • Manuel Vargas-Yáñez,
  • Elena Tel,
  • Francina Moya,
  • Enrique Ballesteros and
  • Mari Carmen García-Martínez

One of the effects of climate change is the rise of sea level, which poses an important threat to coastal areas. Therefore, the protection and management of coastal ecosystems as well as human infrastructures and constructions require an accurate kno...

  • Guillaume Morvan and
  • Bertrand Decharme

8 November 2019

The Amazon River is by far the largest river by volume of water in the world, representing around 17% of the global riverine discharge to the oceans. Recent studies suggested that its impact on sea level is potentially important at global and regiona...

Sea Level Trend and Fronts in the South Atlantic Ocean

  • Laura A. Ruiz-Etcheverry and
  • Martin Saraceno

The understanding of the physical drivers of sea level trend is crucial on global and regional scales. In particular, little is known about the sea level trend in the South Atlantic Ocean in comparison with other parts of the world. In this work, we...
