Estimating future sea level changes from past records
In the last 5000 years, global mean sea level has been dominated by the redistribution of water masses over the globe. In the last 300 years, sea level has been oscillation close to the present with peak rates in the period 1890–1930. Between 1930 and 1950, sea fell. The late 20th century lack any sign of acceleration. Satellite altimetry indicates virtually no changes in the last decade. There...
متن کاملSetting the Frames of Expected Future Sea Level Changes by Exploring past Geological Sea Level Records
Past sea level changes are reconstructed by geological means. Present relative sea level changes are recorded by geodetic means. In order to estimate possible future changes in sea level, we have to use the past as a key to the future. Ice melting and water heating are two processes that may lead to a present sea level rise. Both factors are controlled by strict physical processes. After the la...
متن کاملThe effect of the NAO on sea level and on mass changes in the Mediterranean Sea
[1] Sea level in the Mediterranean Sea over the period 1993–2011 is studied on the basis of altimetry, temperature, and salinity data and gravity measurements from Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) (2002–2010). An observed increase in sea level corresponds to a linear sea level trend of 3.0 0.5mm/yr dominated by the increase in the oceanic mass in the basin. The increase in sea le...
متن کاملSea Level Change in Hong Kong from Tide Gauge Records
The results from the study indicate that there is a rising trend of 1.9±0.4 mm per year in the sea level of Hong Kong. The effect of local atmospheric pressure variations on the amplitude of the annual sea level change is about 30% of the amplitude. It is also found that the interannual variations in the sea level of Hong Kong are related to El Nino and La Nina events that occur frequently in t...
متن کاملSea level variability and surface eddy statistics in the Mediterranean Sea from TOPEXPOSEIDON data
Two years of TOPEX/POSEIDON altimeter data have successfully been used to study the mesoscale field in the Mediterranean and to investigate the seasonal and year-toyear variability of the sea level and eddy statistics in this basin. The mesoscale field described by TOPEX/POSEIDON revealed a strong, but subbasin dependent, seasonal signal. Year-toyear variations are also evident in terms of both...
