So, if you looked at less than 18.6 years worth of data without considering that effect, you might be mislead into thinking that the rate of change of mean sea level had slowed down or sped up, when, in fact, it is doing the opposite.

Daily mean NCEP / NCAR reanalysis data are used as atmospheric forcing, i.e., 10 - m surface winds, 2 - m surface air temperature (SAT), specific humidity, precipitation, evaporation, downwelling longwave radiation, sea level pressure, and cloud fraction.

Analyses of tide gauge and altimetry data by Vinogradov and Ponte (2011), which indicated the presence of considerably small spatial scale variability in annual mean sea level over many coastal regions, are an important factor for understanding the uncertainties in regional sea - level simulations and projections at sub-decadal time scales in coarse - resolution climate models that are also discussed in Chapter 13.

Global mean sea level is measured using tide gauge records and also, since 1993, satellite data.

The map of regional mean sea level trends provides an overview of variations in the rates of relative local mean sea level observed at long - term tide stations (based on a minimum of 30 years of data in order to account for long - term sea level variations and reduce errors in computing sea level trends based on monthly mean sea level).

Accounting for the TOPEX - A instrumental correction for the first 6 years of the altimetry data set, these studies provided a revised global mean sea level time series that slightly reduces the average GMSL rise over the altimetry era (from 3.3 mm / yr to 3.0 mm / yr) but shows clear acceleration over 1993 - present.

As shown in the WRE paper (Nature v. 379, pp. 240 - 243), the differentials at the global - mean level are so small, at most a few tenths of a degree Celsius and a few cm in sea level rise and declining to minuscule amounts as the pathways approach the SAME target, that it is unlikely that an analysis of future climate data could even distinguish between the pathways.

Is there any altimetry data to show how mean sea level varies along the peruviean coast during these events?

It remains possible that the data base is insufficient to compute mean sea level trends with the accuracy necessary to discuss the impact of global warming — as disappointing as this conclusion may be.

What it means Although some regions have recently experienced much greater rates of sea level rise, such as the Arctic (3.6 mm / yr) and Antarctic (4.1 mm / yr), with the mid-1980s even exhibiting a rate of 5.3 mm / yr (Holgate, 2007), this newest analysis of the most comprehensive data set available suggests that there has been no dramatic increase — or any increase, for that matter — in the mean rate of global sea level rise due to the historical increase in the atmosphere's CO2 concentration.

As for the rise in sea level, scientists asserted in the IPCC report that tide gauges and satellite data make it «unequivocal» that the world's mean sea level is on the upswing.

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).

Geological evidence, mainly coral reefs on tectonically stable coasts, was described in the review of Overpeck et al. [51] as favouring an Eemian maximum of +4 to more than 6 m. Rohling et al.

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.

Since this is ice core data this means that the ice didn't melt during these warm periods and there was no abnormal sea level rise indicated during these warm times either.

Satellite altimeter data collected since 1993 have measured a rise in global mean sea level (GMSL) of ∼ 3 ± 0.4 mm / y (1, 2), resulting in more than 7 cm of total sea - level rise over the last 25 y.
