International Geneva Association – Founded in 1877, this was a fraternal organization for people in the hotel, catering, and restaurant business. [170] Other sources give its date of foundation as 1904. [171] In 1949 it had 6,000 members in 34 branches. In the mid-1970s it had c.1,200. It was headquartered in New York.

The Bruun rule gives a linear relationship between sea level rise and shoreline recession based on equilibrium profile theory, which asserts that shore face profile maintains an equilibrium shape, and as sea level rises the increasing accommodation space forces this equilibrium profile landward and upward to preserve its shape relative to the new sea level.

A common and relatively straightforward mean sea-level standard is instead a long-term average of tide gauge readings at a particular reference location. [1] The term above sea level generally refers to the height above mean sea level (AMSL). The term APSL means above present sea level, comparing sea levels in the past with the level today.
Height above mean sea level is a measure of a location's vertical distance (height, elevation or altitude) in reference to a vertical datum based on a historic mean sea level. In geodesy, it is formalized as orthometric height. The zero level varies in different countries due to different reference points and historic measurement periods.
Sea surface height change from 1992 to 2019: Blue regions are where sea level has gone down, and orange/red regions are where sea level has risen (the visualization is based on satellite data). [ 2 ] Between 1901 and 2018, the average sea level rose by 15–25 cm (6–10 in), with an increase of 2.3 mm (0.091 in) per year since the 1970s.
Kaikohe had a population of 4,563 in the 2023 New Zealand census, an increase of 108 people (2.4%) since the 2018 census, and an increase of 678 people (17.5%) since the 2013 census. There were 2,214 males, 2,337 females and 12 people of other genders in 1,353 dwellings. [10] 1.7% of people identified as LGBTIQ+. The median age was 31.0 years ...
The sea-level equation (SLE) is a linear integral equation that describes the sea-level variations associated with the PGR. 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 , [ 45 ] and only later has been refined by Platzman [ 46 ] and Farrell [ 47 ] in the ...
The lowest point of the region is 2650 m, while its highest point is 3600m above the sea level. [3] The Pooladkaf gondola lift in Pooladkaf ski resort, near Sepidan, on the north mountains of Shiraz at Fars region. Elevation of this lift is from 2810 to 3231 meters from sea level.
