The recent activities in sea level research in the Asia Pacific
regions relevant to the Asia-Pacific Space Geodynamics Project
(APSG, Project Scientist, S. Ye) are reported in this paper.
These preliminary results have also been conducted to follow
the objectives stated by a report written by the
APSG Sea Level Group (W. Scherer, C. Shum, and P. Woodworth,
Chairs).  Specifically, the papers address results from the
the use of tide gauge and multiple mission radar altimeter
data for the studies of last several decades of sea level variations
in the Asia-Pacific region and the complementary role of the project
to GLOSS and NEAR-GOOS projects in the region.
