In the mid-2030s, every U.S. coast will experience rapidly increasing high-tide floods, when a lunar cycle will amplify rising sea levels caused by climate change….
Sentinel-6 Michael Freilich, the latest spacecraft to monitor sea surface height, releases its first science measurements to users. After six months of check-out and calibration…
Following liftoff last November and more than six months spent carefully calibrating the most advanced mission dedicated to measuring sea-level rise, Copernicus Sentinel-6 Michael Freilich…
Study sheds light on the future of the massive Thwaites Glacier. The world’s largest ice sheets may be in less danger of sudden collapse than…
New research finds that moving off the coast and away from floods can expand options. University of Delaware disaster researcher A.R. Siders said it’s time…
Nation’s ability to predict sea-level rise boosted with record going back to 10,000 years ago. Climate scientists at the Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU, Singapore)…
The unexpected discovery of a whale skeleton hundreds of miles from the sea and more than 200 feet above sea level in 1849 is a…
Antarctic ice sheet is more likely to remain stable if Paris climate agreement is met. The Antarctic ice sheet is much less likely to become…
New calculations show the rise due to warming would be 30% above forecasts. Global sea level rise associated with the possible collapse of the West…
Fractures from melting and run-off will indirectly lead to sea level rise. More than a third of the Antarctic’s ice shelf area could be at…
A “super full moon” is coming on April 27, 2021, and coastal cities like Miami know that means one thing: a heightened risk of tidal…
Rising seas and inland-surging seawater are leaving behind the debris of dying forests. Now, 35 years of satellite images capture the changes from space. Emily…
It is well known that climate-induced sea level rise is a major threat. New research has found that previous ice loss events could have caused…
With data from a 2016 expedition, scientists supported by NASA are shedding more light into the complex processes under the Greenland Ice Sheet that control…
The melting rate of the Antarctic ice sheet is mainly controlled by the increase of ocean temperatures surrounding Antarctica. Using a new, higher-resolution climate model…
A new artificial island near Malé could be a destination for people trying to escape rising waters on lower-lying islands. With more than 80 percent…
For the first time, researchers have been able to obtain data from underneath Thwaites Glacier, also known as the “Doomsday Glacier.” They find that the…
