Historical tide gauge sea‐level observations in Alicante and Santander (Spain) since the 19th century

Abstract A set of historical tide gauge sea‐level records from two locations in Santander (Northern Spain) and Alicante (Spanish Mediterranean coast) have been recovered from logbooks stored in national archives. Sea‐level measurements have been digitized, quality‐controlled and merged into three co...
