Summary An analysis of high-resolution altimetry contrasted with locally measured Coastal Sea Surface variables will be performed at selected coastal naval installations to characterize climate projections in relation to Sea level Change and Extreme Water Level events. Verification of this comparison at sites with good observational data will allow for comparisons to sites without in-situ measurements. Sea-level variability contrast at global, regional and small scales will be performed in order to identify distinct spatial patterns of sea-level changes at local levels.
