Sea level extremes in the Caribbean Sea [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 2014 AbstractSea level extremes in the Caribbean Sea are analyzed on the basis of hourly records from 13 tide gauges. The largest sea level extreme observed is 83 cm at Port Spain. The largest nontidal residual in the records is 76 cm, forced by a category 5 hurricane. Storm surges in the Caribbean are primarily caused by tropical storms and stationary cold

Seasonal sea level cycle in the Caribbean Sea [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research, 2012 The seasonal sea level cycle has been investigated in the Caribbean Sea using altimetry and tide gauge time series from 27 stations and is characterized by large spatial variability. The coastal annual harmonic has amplitudes that range from 2 cm to 9 cm, peaking between August and October and semi‐annual harmonic with maximum amplitude of 6 cm, with ...
