TotalSeaLevel_MapsSROCC_rcp85_Perc50_zero1986to2005dflow_extrap.nc provides mean sea level fields using as reference period. Sea level fields are computed from the sum of different contributors, including dynamic changes, thermal expansion, changes in gravitational fields, and contribution from glaciers and ice sheets. The different contributions are computed and combined using the probabilistic model described in Le Bars (2018). For the period 1950-2016, we use products based on observations for the Antarctic and Greenland ice sheets (Mouginot et al., 2019; Rignot et al., 2019), the glaciers (Marzeion et al., 2015), thermal expansion between 0 and 2000 m depth (Levitus et al., 2012), and climate-driven water storage (Humphrey & Gudmundsson, 2019). The ice sheets are assumed to be in equilibrium before 1979 for Antarctica and 1972 for Greenland because no data are available before these dates. For the period 2016-2050 we use sea-level rise projections based on the Fifth Assessment Report (AR5) of the ... : {"references": ["Muis S, Irazoqui Apecechea M, Dullaart J, de Lima Rego J, Madsen KS, Su J, Yan K and Verlaan M (2020) A High-Resolution Global Dataset of Extreme Sea Levels, Tides, and Storm Surges, Including Future Projections.
