2. Is Sea Level Rising? Data Sets: Data Tools
Global sea level anomalies from satellite altimetry, thermosteric anomalies, & sub-surface heat content from in-situ observations
Data Tools
Ocean Data View
Excel

3. Vision of Completed Activity
Case Study: Impact of sea level rise in Tuvalu & low-lying Pacific atolls
Students compare time series data of overall sea level rise and thermosteric sea level rise
Use Ocean Data View to explore spatial and temporal distribution of sea level anomalies and temperature, seasonal and long-term variability in sea level, & compare sea level anomaly data with heat content data at depths up to 700 m along any ocean transect
