While satellites have provided consistently good
data for years, the next frontier in
sea level rise measurement is a new type of radar that can capture a more crisp, higher - resolution picture of
sea surface heights.
The researchers collected
data of Karenia brevis concentrations, river outflows, wind conditions, and
sea surface heights to study the physical conditions during periods of large Karenia brevis blooms and periods of no bloom.
Oceanographer Benjamin Hamlington set out to see if he could find an El Niño
sea level rise signal around U.S. coasts, by putting together
data from tide gauges and satellite altimeters, which measure
sea surface heights.
This is probably best illustrated in the figure below, where the authors apply their method of analysis to the satellite
sea surface height (SSH)
data (AVISO):
In the case of ORAS4, this includes ocean temperature measurements from bathythermographs and the Argo buoys, and other types of
data like
sea surface height and
surface temperatures.
You see, the
data used in determining satellite - based SLR in the above
data and graphs, is not really a rise in the
sea surface HEIGHT.
SLR satellite
data includes things such as the «GIA Adjustment» — which is the amount of SLR that there would have been if the ocean basin hadn't increased in volume and in the case of this new study, how much higher the
sea surface would have been if it had not been suppressed by the Mount Pinatubo volcanic eruption, another correction for ENSO / PDO «computed via a joint cyclostationary empirical orthogonal function (CSEOF) analysis of altimeter GMSL, GRACE land water storage, and Argo - based thermosteric sea level from 2005 to present», as well as other additions and adjustments — NONE OF WHICH can actually be found manifested in any change to the physical Sea Surface Height.&raq

Although it does not cover the South Pole, the warming pattern evident in the MSU
data (Fig. 3) is consistent increased atmospheric thickness from the
surface to the mid troposphere and rising geopotential
height over the continent and in the Weddell
Sea sector.
Scientists from the U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and DOE made satellite observations, which included
sea surface height changes alongside
data of ocean temperatures accumulated from 1970 to 2004.
