Sea level, also referred to as mean(平均的) sea level is the level at which the oceans exist when averaged between high and low tides. It is calculated by measuring the level of the oceans over long periods of time and under all types of weather conditions. 1 For instance, the height...
In the same way, the oceans constitute a huge, irregularly-shaped body of water whose surface is disturbed by one cause or another so that its level at any point is constantly changing in elevation. And we conceive mean sea level at any point along the shore as the level of the ocean ...
A.The measurement of mean sea level has many uses. B.These devices measure the average height of the sea. C.The actual level of the sea is constantly changing as tides rise and fall. D.A change in the height of the land can also affect the measurement of the sea. E.It is used to...
It may be a long search for a lost child, an accident that injured a large number of people, a natural disaster such as a flood, or a visit by a famous person. It is news if someone wins a million dollars or discovers new facts about the human body. In other words, news does ...
In the Trojan War, Odysseus is the man who uses the wooden horse as a trick. After the war, the god of the sea, who sends a huge storm to destroy his ships.Odysseus and his men are sent to a strange island. Some of the ship’s crew eat a magical fruit that makes them tired ...

Altimeter data provide a useful complement to tide gages for monitoring the mean sea level or the continental ice topography. We discuss here how these signals can be separated from measurement errors and from other ocean signals. With existing data, the formal error which can be achieved is of...
30,31). The Greenland Ice Sheet was identified as the greatest source of uncertainty associated with the ice sheet contribution to GMSL for 18% of responses for 2100 and 13% for 2300. Uncertainty of the sea level contribution from the Greenland Ice Sheet is dominated by surface mass balance...
Water that has condensed close to ground level, producing a cloud of very small droplets that reduces visibility to less than one km (three thousand and three hundred feet). In Canada, fog is defined as a cloud at ground level, and occurs when air is cooled to its dew point and below,...
approximately half of Australia's coastline is bedrock, and headlands and bluffs compartmentalise the remaining coast into over 11,000 individual beaches that average only 1.4 km in length (Short, 2019). As such, longshore variations in sediment transport pathways, beach dynamics and recent-historic...
