Acceleration of the Extreme Sea Level Rise Along the Chinese Coast
Using high-frequency tide gauge observations from 1980 to 2017, we analyzed changes in extreme sea levels (ESLs) along the Chinese coast to examine whether extreme sea-level rise acceleration could be observed. The results indicated that the ESL has risen with fluctuations along the Chinese coast. T...
