=========================== FOLLOWING PSMSL DOCUMENTATION ADDED 02-May-1995 Station density along some sections of the Australian coast has meant that station codes 601 onwards have been re-ordered compared to those in earlier versions of the PSMSL data set. =========================== FOLLOWING PSMSL DOCUMENTATION ADDED 10-Apr-2000 This is a "baseline station" of the Australian National Tidal Facility. =========================== FOLLOWING PSMSL DOCUMENTATION ADDED 10-Apr-2000 Hillarys 680/472 RLR(2000) is 10.511m below HZ879 =========================== FOLLOWING PSMSL DOCUMENTATION ADDED 06-Sep-2011 The Hillarys record suggests that sea level is rising relatively fast due to local submergence from compaction of the coastal sandy location and significant ground water extraction, see the chapter by Deng et al. entitled 'Satellite Altimetry for Geodetic, Oceanographic and Climate Sudies in the Australian Region' in the book Coastal Altimetry (Wiley, 2011) =========================== FOLLOWING PSMSL DOCUMENTATION ADDED 24-Oct-2011 Using information from the National Tidal Centre, Australia the RLR diagram has been revised. Benchmark HZ879 is 4.211m above TGZ. Benchmark Hamersley 130 T1 is 4.895m above TGZ and the national datum reference is 0.763m above tgz. The RLR factor is 6.3m. =========================== FOLLOWING PSMSL DOCUMENTATION ADDED 11-Feb-2014 The high rate of sea level rise at Hillarys during the two decades since the early 1990s has been linked to groundwater withdrawal, see Burgette et al. (2013 Geophysical Journal International).
