Calculating Port Dangers - 3

 Ports are Ports

I. Background

In previous posts of this series PSMSL coastal areas were considered for the purpose of showing, among other things, that the "bathtub model" (The Bathtub Model Doesn't Hold Water, 2, 3, 4, 5) of "The Warming Commentariat" (The Warming Science Commentariat, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15) is a falsified hypothesis because sea level change is different from place to place instead of being like the surface of the water in a bathtub.

Appendices in the past two posts of this series show radical differences in sea level change occur even within the same coastal area (e.g. sea level fall and sea level rise in the same coastal area) and even in the same country (Calculating Seaport Dangers, 2).

II. USA Tide Gauge Stations Around Ports

Today's appendices detail sea level change graphs recorded by tide gauge stations in six coastal areas (APNDX 760, APNDX 820, APNDX 821, APNDX 823, APNDX 940, APNDX 960) of the USA.

Another appendix contains an HTML table of tide gauge stations by number and Coast id (USA Tide Gauge Stations).

This, when compared with other countries, shows that port sea level change is different even from port to port.

The environmental dangers they face is not like the Wendy's "Parts is Parts" situation.

The previous post in this series is here.
