Geographic variability of sea-level change

RE Kopp, CC Hay, CM Little, JX Mitrovica - Current Climate Change …, 2015 - Springer
Local sea-level changes differ significantly from global-mean sea-level change as a result of
(1) non-climatic, geological background processes;(2) atmosphere/ocean dynamics; and (3) …

Temperature-driven global sea-level variability in the Common Era

RE Kopp, AC Kemp, K Bittermann… - Proceedings of the …, 2016 - National Acad Sciences
We assess the relationship between temperature and global sea-level (GSL) variability over
the Common Era through a statistical metaanalysis of proxy relative sea-level …

Detecting anthropogenic footprints in sea level rise

S Dangendorf, M Marcos, A Müller, E Zorita… - Nature …, 2015 - nature.com
While there is scientific consensus that global and local mean sea level (GMSL and LMSL)

A preindustrial sea‐level rise hotspot along the Atlantic coast of North America

WR Gehrels, S Dangendorf, NLM Barlow… - Geophysical …, 2020 - Wiley Online Library
Abstract The Atlantic coast of North America north of Cape Hatteras has been proposed as a
“hotspot” of late 20th century sea‐level rise. Here we test, using salt‐marsh proxy sea‐level …

Exploring mechanisms of compaction in salt-marsh sediments using Common Era relative sea-level reconstructions

MJ Brain, AC Kemp, AD Hawkes, SE Engelhart… - Quaternary Science …, 2017 - Elsevier
Salt-marsh sediments provide precise and near-continuous reconstructions of Common Era
relative sea level (RSL). However, organic and low-density salt-marsh sediments are prone …

RL Barnett, P Bernatchez, M Garneau… - Journal of Quaternary …, 2017 - Wiley Online Library
Proxy records of late Holocene relative sea‐level changes are important for our

Advances in the observation and understanding of changes in sea level and tides

PL Woodworth - Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2022 - Wiley Online Library
Climate change, of which sea level change is one component, is seldom out of the news.

Salt-marsh testate amoebae as precise and widespread indicators of sea-level change

RL Barnett, TL Newton, DJ Charman, WR Gehrels - Earth-Science Reviews, 2017 - Elsevier
