in projections for
changes in the
climate indices reviewed here (especially El Niño and La Niña), this study serves to alert us to the fact that the

changes that occur on both a large,
global scale and over the long, decadal term.

Mean sea level (MSL) evolution has a direct impact on coastal areas and is a crucial
index of
climate change since it reflects both the amount of heat added
in the ocean and the mass loss due to land ice melt (e.g. IPCC, 2013; Dieng et al., 2017) Long - term and inter-annual variations of the sea level are observed at
global and regional scales.
