The level of its surface relative to the land. For mapping and other technical purposes the Mean Sea Level at a suitable reference location is used, to allow for the tides.
I don't know the American equivalent, but for the UK the reference level is Mean Sea Level measured at Newlyn, Cornwall, as it is a convenient location little affected bycoastal features or the English Channel, Bristol Channel (the Severn Estuary), etc.

refers only to the flat surface, and has no reference whatsoever to the
elevation of those places.
"Sea Level" is the zero reference level from which all other levels are measured,
usually in "feet Above Mean Sea Level".
