*”sea level” is generally used to refer to mean sea level (MSL), an average level for the surface of one or more of earth’s oceans from which heights such as elevations may be measured*
.
(‘MSL’ is a type of ‘vertical datum’ – a standardized geodetic reference point – that is used, for example, as a ‘chart datum’ in ‘cartography’ + ‘marine navigation’, or, in ‘aviation’, as the standard ‘sea level’ at which ‘atmospheric pressure’ is measured in order to calibrate ‘altitude’ and, consequently, ‘aircraft flight levels’)
(a common and relatively straightforward mean sea-level standard is the “midpoint between a ‘mean low’ and ‘mean high’ tide at a ‘particular location’)
(‘sea levels’ can be affected by many factors and are known to have varied greatly over geological time scales)
(the careful measurement of variations in ‘MSL’ can offer insights into ongoing ‘climate change’, and ‘sea level rise’ has been widely quoted as evidence of ongoing ‘global warming’)
(cue george li’s “rising tide”)
.
(the term above sea level generally refers to above mean sea level (AMSL))
