Coastal Terraces, Sea Level, and Active Tectonics [PDF]
In this exercise, students investigate the use of coastal landforms from ancient shorelines in studying tectonic movements. Introductory materials explain how coastal landforms are classified on the basis of sediment supply and positions of the land ...

Statistical analysis of global surface air temperature and sea level using cointegration methods [PDF]
Global sea levels are rising which is widely understood as a consequence of thermal expansion and melting of glaciers and land-based ice caps. Due to physically-based models being unable to simulate observed sea level trends, semi-empirical models have ...
