9781118452585 1118452585 Measuring sea-level change - be that rise or fall - isone of the most pressing scientific goals of our time and requiresrobust scientific approaches and techniques. This Handbookaims to provide a practical guide to readers interested in thischallenge, from the initial design of research approaches throughto the practical issues of data collection and interpretation froma diverse range of coastal environments. Building on thirtyyears of international research, the Handbook comprises 38 chaptersthat are authored by leading experts from around the world. The Handbook will be an important resource to scientists interestedand involved in understanding sea-level changes across a broadrange of disciplines, policy makers wanting to appreciate ourcurrent state of knowledge of sea-level change over differenttimescales, and many teachers at the university level, as well asadvanced-level undergraduates and postgraduate research students,wanting to learn more about sea-level change.

Additional resources for this book can be found at: www.wiley.comgoshennansealevel, This book will cover all aspects of modern sea-level studies, with a focus on the most robust scientific approaches and techniques. It will build upon thirty years of international research, much of which was facilitated by a series of IGCP projects and the activities of INQUA sub-commissions. In order to integrate studies across timescales from seconds to thousands of years and spatial scales from local to global we require a robust research methodology, research design that produce replicable data that can be transferred between authors and research projects. This book will set out these methodologies, approaches and their technical requirements. The only previously similar book (Sea-Level Research: a manual for the collection and evaluation of data. Edited by Orson van de Plassche, 1986) is out of print. For perhaps 15 years it was a widely used reference and highlighted the need for a handbook approach. It was especially useful in transferring approaches and skills beyond the research heartlands of NW Europe and North America.
