<span>It has been conducted a research about sea level rise (SLR) in surrounding Jawa island by using <span>satellite altimetry data Topex/Poseidon, Jason-1 dan Jason-2 for period 2000 <span>– <span>2010. Satellite <span>altimetry is satellite which specially design for measuring dynamics of sea water. Those <span>satellite lauched firstly in 1992 incorporation between <span><em>National Aeronautics and Space </em><span><em>Administration </em><span>(<span><em>NASA</em><span>) dan European Space Agency (ESA). There are six locations for <span>measuring SLR i.e. Jakarta, Semarang, Surabaya, Pangandaran, Jogjakarta dan Prigi. We chose<br /><span>locations based on alongtrack of satellite and near the big cities in Jawa island with dimension <span>area around 0.5<span>o<span>x0.5<span>o <span>degrees. We found SLR rate for Jakarta (2.5 ± 0.24 mm/yr), Semarang <span>(2.16 ± 0.20 mm/yr), Surabaya (2.72 ± 0.19 mm/yr), Pangandaran (0.71 ± 0.33 mm/yr), <span>Jogjakarta (0.91 ± 0.38 mm/yr) and Prigi (1.3 ± 0.38 mm/yr). The average SLR rate for North <span>coast is (2.46 ± 0.21 mm/yr) and for South coast (0.97 ± 0.36 mm/yr). This results are well<br /><span>correlated with data from tide gauge stations.</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span><br /></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span>
