Annual Review of Marine Science, 2010
Measuring sea level change and understanding its causes has considerably improved in the recent years, essentially because new in situ and remote sensing observations have become available. Here we report on most recent results on contemporary sea level rise.

Geology Today, 1989
Predictions suggest that the world sea level will rise dramatically in the twenty‐first century as a result of atmospheric and oceanic warming arising from the ‘greenhouse effect’. Changing sea level is nothing new to the geologist, but rapid rates of rise over short periods and potentially devastating impacts present a major challenge to society in ...

Sea level rise increases the frequency and severity of coastal flooding and rates of coastal erosion. Sea level rise will continue far beyond the 21st century, even if global temperature increase is limited to 2°C above pre-industrial levels. This POSTnote sets out the causes and likely future levels of sea level rise and its implications.

Sea level is the height of the sea surface expressed either in a geocentric reference frame (absolute sea level) or with respect to the moving Earth’s crust (relative sea level). Absolute sea level variations result from changes in the volume of water filling ocean basins (due either to water density or mass changes), while relative sea level ...

Sea level rise in the twentieth century was 1.7 mm/year, and there are different accounts as to whether the rise included a very small deceleration or acceleration. From 1993 to 2012, altimeters have measured a greater sea level trend than the twentieth century trend, but it is not known yet whether this is the leading edge of a sustained acceleration ...

Rising groundwater and sea-level rise
Nature Climate Change, 2020The response of coastal groundwater to sea-level rise is largely unknown. Groundwater modelling along the California coast — accounting for complex topography and its interaction with rivers, streams and tributaries — shows that the area at risk from rising groundwater tables extends beyond that inundated by sea-level rise alone.

Coasts contain a large and growing population and economy including world cities such as London, New York, Tokyo, Shanghai, Mumbai, Lagos, and Rio de Janeiro, as well as important habitats and their ecosystem services. Global sea levels are rising due to climate change and this will accelerate through this century: a rise of more than 1 m is possible ...
