|a Global mean sea level (GMSL) dropped by 5 mm
between the beginning of 2010 and mid 2011. This drop
occurred despite the background rate of rise, 3 mm per year,
which dominates most of the 18-year record observed by
satellite altimeters. Using a combination of satellite and in
situ data, we show that the decline in ocean mass, which
explains the sea level drop, coincides with an equivalent
increase in terrestrial water storage, primarily over Australia,
northern South America, and Southeast Asia. This
temporary shift of water from the ocean to land is closely
related to the transition from El Niño conditions in 2009/10
to a strong 2010/11 La Niña, which affected precipitation
patterns world-wide. |
