Calculated rates include the entire record for long-term, as well as more limited dataset for more recent 19-year rates. The 19-year rates were calculated to end at the most recent surface elevation table (SET) measurement. Rates are directly compared with rates from SET measurements of surface elevation change to provide estimates of vulnerability to sea level rise.</dc:description><dc:format>ArcGIS FeatureLayer</dc:format><dc:identifier>https://hub.arcgis.com/datasets/485b3b102d6347a8a5a46db1b856f527_54</dc:identifier><dc:language>eng</dc:language><dc:publisher>New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection's (NJDEP) Bureau of GIS</dc:publisher><dc:rights>Public</dc:rights><dc:title>Sea Level Rise Rates from NOAA National Water Level Observation Network (NWLON) [New Jersey]</dc:title><dc:type>Web services</dc:type><dc:coverage>New Jersey</dc:coverage><dc:date>Last Modified: 2025-11-24</dc:date></oai_dc:dc>
