Measuring sea-level change - be that rise or fall - is one of the most
pressing scientific goals of our time and requires robust scientific
approaches and techniques. This Handbook aims to provide a practical
guide to readers interested in this challenge, from the initial design
of research approaches through to the practical issues of data
collection and interpretation from a diverse range of coastal
environments. Building on thirty years of international research, the
Handbook comprises 38 chapters that are authored by leading experts from
around the world. The Handbook will be an important resource to
scientists interested and involved in understanding sea-level changes
across a broad range of disciplines, policy makers wanting to appreciate
our current state of knowledge of sea-level change over different
timescales, and many teachers at the university level, as well as
advanced-level undergraduates and postgraduate research students,
wanting to learn more about sea-level change.
