Coastal altimetry, which provides detailed wave and sea level data in the coastal zone captured by specialist instruments called radar altimeters on board satellites, is at the heart of the project and scientists from NOC have been at the cutting - edge of this technique.

This new data will help researchers better project future changes to glaciers and ice sheets, and ultimately, sea level.

Bed topography data are vital for computer models used to project future changes to ice sheets and their contribution to sea level rise.

In my project I analyzed long - term water level data sets of various locations at the Baltic Sea.

And based upon late Quaternary stratigraphic data from peninsular Florida's shelf and coastal zone, historic wetland accumulation rates, and residence time of coastal construction projects (i.e. beach «nourishment», dune «restoration»), by mid-century the rate of predicted sea level rise will result in erosional shoreface retreat and ultimately overstep of both the natural and built environment.

Corell noted that the projected rise in sea level during this century of 18 — 59 centimeters (7 — 23 inches) by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change was based on data that were two years old.

A review of trend models applied to sea level data with reference to the «acceleration - deceleration debate» Global sea levels have been rising through the past century and are projected to rise at an accelerated rate throughout the 21st century.

Among other things, this means that the IPCC team, which did not have the ice melt data through the 1990s, will need to revise upward its projected rise in sea level for this century — currently estimated to range from 0.09 meters to 0.88 meters (from 4 to 35 inches).

Different approaches have been used to compute the mean rate of 20th century global mean sea level (GMSL) rise from the available tide gauge data: computing average rates from only very long, nearly continuous records; using more numerous but shorter records and filters to separate nonlinear trends from decadal - scale quasi-periodic variability; neural network methods; computing regional sea level for specific basins then averaging; or projecting tide gauge records onto empirical orthogonal functions (EOFs) computed from modern altimetry or EOFs from ocean models.

«Dr. Amstrup, however, said that according to the National Snow and Ice Data Center, the average September sea ice extent for the years 2007 to 2017 was 4.5 million square kilometers, «nowhere near the low levels projected it would be by the middle of the century.»

I concluded that the projections of extreme sea level rise are not consistent with plausible physical mechanisms, not supported by the available data, and further, that the AR4 projected range (about 30 - 50 cm by 2100) agreed perfectly with my projections over a wide range of warming scenarios.

Yes, the first Table (Recent short - term sea level trends in the Project area based upon SEAFRAME data through September 2006) lists trends of 2.7 to 17 mm / yr.

The project will provide accurate data to inform such activities as storm surge and sea - level rise mapping for the Islands.

Tidal data for the Torres Strait Islands region is insufficiently accurate to manage and respond to events such as storm surge and projected sea level rise.
