Abstract
In figure 1 to 7 some relative sea-level curves are given, with their linear variations and nodal tide, from gauge-records along the Dutch coast. The locations of these gauges are shown on the map in fig. 8. Figure 9 allows the comparison of the stations concerned. The linear variation (relative sea-level rise) varies between 16 and 22 cm per century and appears to be higher in the southern part of the Dutch coast than in the northern part (table I).
