Sea Level Monitoring in French Polynesia
Abstract
We give an overview of the mean sea level data (GPS and radar) that have been collected, according to GGOS guidelines, in five islands in French Polynesia since 2007: Tahiti-Vairao, Rangiroa, Makemo, Mangareva and Tubuai, and assess their intrinsic quality and noise level. A preliminary analysis in terms of tendencies is given, with comparisons with satellite altimetric data.
