Sea‐Level Change in Hong Kong From Tide Gauges, GNSS, and Satellite Altimetry

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract As a densely populated, highly urbanized coastal city, Hong Kong is particularly vulnerable to sea‐level rise, which amplifies flood risk and threatens coastal infrastructure, economies, and ecosystems. We combine observations from tide gauges, conventional gridded satellite altimetry, coastal‐retracked altimetry, and Global Navigation ...
