Tide gauges with the longest nearly continuous records of sea level show increasing sea level over the 20th century.

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.

In examining the record of sea level rise for the past two millennia — this was the first continuous sea level reconstruction of the time period, it should be noted — the scientists found that sea level was relatively stable from 200 BCE to 1000 CE.
