Answer:
Sea level is primarily measured using tide stations and satellite laser altimeters. Tide stations around the globe tell us what is happening at a local level—the height of the water as measured along the coast relative to a specific point on land.

Answer:
NASA measures sea level around the globe using satellites. The Jason-3 satellite uses radio waves and other instruments to measure the height of the ocean's surface – also known as sea level. It does this for the entire Earth every 10 days, studying how global sea level is changing over time.
