    Contrasted influence of climate modes teleconnections to the interannual variability of coastal sea level components–implications for statistical forecasts

    Sea level variations at the coast can have drastic environmental and socio-economic impacts in particular in the context of an ever-increasing coastal population and anthropogenic climate change. Regional to g...

    The Contribution of Wind-Generated Waves to Coastal Sea-Level Changes

    Surface gravity waves generated by winds are ubiquitous on our oceans and play a primordial role in the dynamics of the ocean–land–atmosphere interfaces. In particular, wind-generated waves cause fluctuations ...

    Forcing Factors Affecting Sea Level Changes at the Coast

    We review the characteristics of sea level variability at the coast focussing on how it differs from the variability in the nearby deep ocean. Sea level variability occurs on all timescales, with processes at ...

    Deep-ocean mixing driven by small-scale internal tides

    Turbulent mixing in the ocean is key to regulate the transport of heat, freshwater and biogeochemical tracers, with strong implications for Earth’s climate. In the deep ocean, tides supply much of the mechanic...

    Under-estimated wave contribution to coastal sea-level rise

    Coastal communities are threatened by sea-level changes operating at various spatial scales; global to regional variations are associated with glacier and ice sheet loss and ocean thermal expansion, while smal...

    What dominates sea level at the coast: a case study for the Gulf of Guinea

    Sea level variations and extreme events are a major threat for coastal zones. This threat is expected to worsen with time because low-lying coastal areas are expected to become more vulnerable to flooding and ...

    Solomon Sea circulation and water mass modifications: response at ENSO timescales

    The South Pacific low latitude western boundary currents (LLWBCs) carry waters of subtropical origin through the Solomon Sea before joining the equatorial Pacific. Changes in their properties or transport are ...

    Variability in Solomon Sea circulation derived from altimeter sea level data

    The Solomon Sea is a key region in the Pacific Ocean where equatorial and subtropical circulations are connected. The region exhibits the highest levels in sea level variability in the entire south tropical Pa...
