Seaports With Sea Level Change - 35

Fig. 1 May Day May Day

I. Unusual Data

It has been over a year (August 2022) since the last post where data indicated that there were stations with a foot or more of SLC (sea level change).

It was covered in two appendices of Seaports With Sea Level Change - 24 (Appendix SLR, Appendix SLF) but it seems like it is time for an update, so here are the updated versions (Appendix SLR 2024, Appendix SLF 2024).

The main thing to remember for large sea level change data is that this type of information ultimately is a function of the length of time that the records have been kept.

For example a station with two feet of sea level change over a 100 year span of time and a station with two feet of sea level change over a 50 year span of time are two utterly different scenarios (i.e. one could be related to an earthquake).

III. Closing Comments

I am working on adding sea level change futures (estimated increases) to the seaport data in future posts because "things have changed"  (Dylan, cf. Fig. 1).

The basic reason is that the bathtub model of reporting (The Bathtub Model Doesn't Hold Water, 2, 3, 4, 5) practiced by the Warming Commentariat (The Warming Science Commentariat, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15) is dangerously uninformative (Appendix SLR, Appendix SLF).

It will appear in upcoming posts and series as it has in the past (as regular readers know). 

The previous post in this series is here.
