Description

Water level records are a combination of the fluctuations of the ocean and the vertical land motion at the location of the station. Monthly mean sea level (MSL) variations were analyzed for the stations of the National Ocean Service's (NOS) National Water Level Observation Network (NWLON) having at least 30 years of data. The sea level variations determined are the relative sea level trend, the average seasonal cycle, and the interannual variability at each station. Since the derived trends include the local vertical land motion, they are spatially variable. The relative sea level trend plots include the time series for each station of the monthly MSL with the seasonal cycle removed, a 5-month average, and the linear trend with its 95% confidence interval; the average seasonal cycle; the interannual variation of MSL. The plots are updated monthly and the long-term trend is recalculated every year. The location and timing of any major earthquakes near stations in tectonically-active areas are noted since an associated vertical offset or a change in MSL trend is possible.
