Sea level is generally used to refer to mean sea level (MSL), an average level for the surface of one or more of Earth's oceans from which heights such as elevations may be measured. MSL is a type of vertical datum – a standardised geodetic reference point – that is used, for example, as a chart datum in cartography and marine navigation, or, in aviation, as the standard sea level at which atmospheric pressure is measured in order tocalibrate altitude and, consequently, aircraft flight levels. A common and relatively straightforward mean sea-level standard is the midpoint between a mean low and mean high tide at a particular location.
Sea levels can be affected by many factors and are known to have varied greatly over geological time scales. The careful measurement of variations in MSL can offer insights into ongoing climate change, and sea level risehas been widely quoted as evidence of ongoing global warming.
The term above sea level generally refers to above mean sea level (AMSL).
I can think of one...
there is gravity pulling everything to the center of the earth, therefore the earth is spherical because gravity is equally distributed, pulling everything to Earth's center equally.
The Western Front barely moved throughout World War I because the major method of warfare during World War I was called trench warfare. Trench warfare was essentially digging into positions and defending them from attackers. There were major advancements made in weaponry such as machine guns at this time, but there were not similar advancements in the mobility of weaponry. Therefore, forces simply dug in and defended positions without making much movement at all.
It is considered to be a kelso dune
