Aim of the work: To determine the effect of the mechanical atmospheric forcing on sea level variability at different time scales, namely:  Quantify inter-decadal trends, paying particular attention to:  comparison with tide gauge trends  the seasonality of trends  the relation between long-term sea-level variability and climatic indices such as the NAO index and the MOI To determine the effect of the steric contribution on sea level variability from high-resolution models, concretely:  Brief description of the model.
