Appendix M-O To Countries - 5

This file is an Appendix to: Countries With Sea Level Change - 5

This file presents the thermosteric sea level change (tsSlc)
as well as in situ measured sea level change (SLC) caused by
the melting and calving of glaciers and ice sheets.

Records are obtained from two sources:

1) PSMSL (ground-based coastal tide gauge data)
2) WOD (seawater in situ measurements at various depths).

Calculations of thermosteric volume change in ocean water
is calculated with the TEOS-10 software toolkit.

The span of years within which the records were obtained
has been synchronized for equal calculation results (The
SLC and TeSlc beginning and ending years are the same).

A millimeters-per-year value is also calculated to give
a better understanding of the impact that ocean heat content
has on the ocean's volume, compared to the impact that
melting ice and glacial calving has on the ocean's mass.

Both cause SLC, but the thermosteric component is minor.

Graphs of the countries featured below are here.
