- Sea_level_equation abstract "The sea level equation (SLE) is the linear, integral equation that describes the sea-level variations associated with the Glacial Isostatic Adjustement (GIA).The basic idea of the SLE dates back to 1888, when Woodward published his pioneering work on the form and position of mean sea level, and only later has been refined by Platzman and Farrell in the context of the study of the ocean tides. In the words of Wu and Peltier, the solution of the SLE yields the space– and time–dependent change of ocean bathymetry which is required to keep the gravitational potential of the sea surface constant for a specific deglaciation chronology and viscoelastic earth model. The SLE theory was then developed by other authors as Mitrovica & Peltier, Mitrovica et al. and Spada & Stocchi. In its simplest form, the SLE reads where is the sea–level change, is the sea surface variation as seen from Earth's center of mass, and is vertical displacement. In a more explicit form the SLE can be written as follow: where is colatitude and is longitude, is time, and are the densities of ice and water, respectively, is the reference surface gravity, is the sea–level Green’s function (dependent upon the and viscoelastic load–deformation coefficients - LDCs), is the ice thickness variation, represents the eustatic term (i.e. the ocean–averaged value of ), and denote spatio–temporal convolutions over the ice– and ocean–covered regions, and the overbar indicates an average over the surface of the oceans that ensures mass conservation.".
