The workshop aims at providing an overview about the current state-of-knowledge of sea level research. Major aspects of sea level changes will be contemplated, from global to regional, observations and modeling, processes driving mean sea level changes and extremes, from the geological scale to the instrumental era and future projections and including impacts on coastal zones.
