Over the past two decades, satellite-based planetary observations have recorded rapid mass loss of Patagonian glaciers, ...

An overlooked Antarctic water system could raise sea levels by more than 2 meters by 2300, computer simulations show.

Global sea level will rise rapidly in the coming century; perhaps by more than 1 meter. This is primarily caused by ...

Global sea level will rise rapidly in the coming century; perhaps by more than 1 metre. This is primarily caused by increasing concentrations of greenhouse gases (source: IPCC). Submerged peat ...

Research led by the Union of Concerned Scientists reports that emissions from the world's largest fossil fuel and cement ...

Oceans are rising, and as the world gets hotter, it's happening more quickly. The rate of sea level rise in 2024 was faster than NASA scientists were expecting. The Post and Courier’s Rising ...

A new interactive map called the “Coastal Risk Finder” allows you to zoom into your neighborhood to see what water levels will be like in 20 years, 30 years, 40 years and so on.

BUT THE ICE IS MELTING. FAST. THE GREENLAND ICE CAP IS NOW THE THE LARGEST CONTRIBUTOR TO GLOBAL SEA LEVEL RISE. IT’S OUTSTRIPPED THE GENERAL WARMING OF THE OCEAN, AND IT’S CONTRIBUTING MORE ...

The third set of measurements the scientists use is global mean sea level height, which is collected by satellites. To extract soil moisture changes from this set of data, the researchers subtracted ...

Sea level rise is a major global issue driven by climate change, primarily due to melting ice caps and the thermal expansion of seawater. Higher sea levels lead to more frequent and severe coastal ...

That was announced by researchers at NASA and the National Snow and Ice Data Center on Thursday, who said the amount of sea ice on the planet had reached the lowest level ever recorded in March.
