ATLANTIC_CH05_Product_2 / Spatial layer of absolute annually averaged sea level trend (in mm/year) for period of 50 years
This product attempt to follow up on the sea level rise per stretch of coast of the North Atlantic, over past 50 years as follows:
• Characterization of absolute sea level trend at annual resolution, along the coasts of EU Member States (including Outermost Regions), Canada, Faroes, Greenland, Iceland, Mexico, Morocco, Norway and USA;
The stretchs or coast are defined by the administrative regions of the Atlantic Coast:
• from NUTS3** administrative division for EU countries (see Eurostat), and
• from GADM*** administrative divisions for non-EU countries.
** Third level of Nomenclature of Territorial Units for Statistics
*** Global Administrative Areas
For absolute sea level trend for 50 years we extract the information from grided sea level reconstruction datasets (using a combination of satellite and tide gauges) and extrapolate it to the nearest strecth of coast if the distance from the stretch of Coast to the nearest grid point is smaller than the horizontal grid resolution, if the distance is larger it´s considered to have a gap. The product is Provided in tabular form and as a map layer.

-
This characteristic handles the ability to follow up on the sea-level rise per stretch of coast of the North Atlantic (* ie. including North-East Atlantic, USA, Canada and Ooutermost Rregions), over 50 years, to assess whether the current available marine datasets are available and appropriate to the use case, as well as to indicate gaps in the current EU data collection framework.

This EMODnet Atlantic Checkpoint data product (the "Product") is the result of a "challenge" stress test specified by the call for tenders No MARE/2012/11. The challenge partners ( "the producer") were commissioned to perform a number of tests to evaluate marine data according to set user requirements. This product and any resultant data and metadata produced is a consequence of these tests and provided for interest only. The Product is provided on an "as is" basis, and the producer disclaims any and all warranties, conditions, or representations (express, implied, oral or written), relating to the Product or any part thereof, including, without limitation, any and all implied warranties of quality, performance, suitability orfitness for a particular purpose to the full extent permitted by law.
The Producer and the Atlantic Checkpoint partners accept no liability for loss suffered or incurred as a result of reliance on the Product or any output of its use. The Producer shall not be liable for any economic loss, loss of profit, loss of business or contract, depletion of goodwill or otherwise, in each case whether direct, or indirect or any indirect loss whatsoever (howsoever caused) including loss or damage suffered as a result of an action brought by any person which arise out of or in connection with the use of the Product or inability to use the Product

Very good: The product meets more than 70% of the objectives specified by the challenge

-
It was possible to produce an average annual absolute sea-level rise trend for 50 years for most of the length of coast required due to the existence of an accessible reconstruction of absolute sea level, combining satellite altimetry data and tide gauges, with a temporal extension longer than 50 years and enough temporal resolution. Input data is available in a well-documented format. The limitation is that the sea level reconstruction is accessible as a gridded data and had to be extrapolated to each stretch of coast losing some accuracy. Moreover, the reconstructed sea level only reaches 62 degrees north and therefore some coast to the north is not filled.
