Global sea-level budget 1993–present [PDF]

open access: yesEarth System Science Data, 2018
Global mean sea level is an integral of changes occurring in the climate system in response to unforced climate variability as well as natural and anthropogenic forcing factors. Its temporal evolution allows changes (e.g., acceleration) to be detected

Baroclinic Sea Level

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2023
Sea level and its horizontal gradient are an expression of oceanic volume, heat content, and currents. Large‐scale currents have historically been viewed as mostly “baroclinic,” and tides as “barotropic,” respectively, in the loose sense of being ...

Setback zones can effectively reduce exposure to sea-level rise in Europe

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Coastal space is one of the most valuable assets of the EU coastal member states, as the coast is highly urbanized. Hard engineering has traditionally been employed to protect communities in coastal lowlands, but as this alternative becomes less ...

Investigating the interaction of waves and river discharge during compound flooding at Breede Estuary, South Africa [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2022
Recent studies have drawn special attention to the significant dependencies between flood drivers and the occurrence of compound flood events in coastal areas.

Exploring spatial feedbacks between adaptation policies and internal migration patterns due to sea-level rise

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Climate change-induced sea-level rise will lead to an increase in internal migration, whose intensity and spatial patterns will depend on the amount of sea-level rise; future socioeconomic development; and adaptation strategies pursued to reduce exposure

A Physical Mechanism for the Indian Summer Monsoon—Arctic Sea-Ice Teleconnection

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2022
Significant changes in the Arctic climate, particularly a rapid decline of September Arctic sea ice has occurred over the past few decades. Though the exact reason for such drastic changes is still unknown, studies suggest anthropogenic drivers, natural ...

Contribution of solitons to enhanced rogue wave occurrence in shallow depths: a case study in the southern North Sea [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2023
The shallow waters off the coast of Norderney in the southern North Sea are characterised by a higher frequency of rogue wave occurrences than expected. Here, rogue waves refer to waves exceeding twice the significant wave height.

Celebrating 80 years of the Permanent Service for Mean Sea Level (PSMSL) [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Association of Hydrological Sciences, 2015
The PSMSL was established as a “Permanent Service” of the International Council for Science in 1958, but in practice was a continuation of the Mean Sea Level Committee which had been set up at the Lisbon International Union of Geodesy and Geophysics ...

An Automatic Method for Black Margin Elimination of Sentinel-1A Images over Antarctica

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2020
The Sentinel-1A satellite was launched in April 2014 with a primary C-Band terrain observation with progressive scans synthetic aperture radar (TOPSAR) onboard and has collected plenty of high-quality images for global change studies.

Increased prokaryotic diversity in the Red Sea deep scattering layer

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiome, 2023
Background The diel vertical migration (DVM) of fish provides an active transport of labile dissolved organic matter (DOM) to the deep ocean, fueling the metabolism of heterotrophic bacteria and archaea.
