We investigate the sea level rise in Indonesia during the period 1993-2011 using satellite altimetry and tide gauge data. Satellite altimetry indicates a positive sea level rise with mean of 4 mm/yr, which is higher than the global averaged mean sea level rise. At four tide-gauge stations the differ...
