Recent research conducted by an international team of scientists from Utrecht University, the UK, and the US has resulted in a significant advancement in the understanding of sea level changes.
Sea level on Earth has been rising and falling ever since there was water on the planet. Scientists were already able to use sediments and fossils to roughly reconstruct how sea levels changed over ...
Improved satellite measurements and computer simulations of ice sheets are creating a more accurate picture of the current and future rise in global sea level, according to an international team of ...
For around 2,000 years, global sea levels varied little. That changed in the 20th century. They started rising and have not stopped since — and the pace is accelerating. Scientists are scrambling to ...
Now scientists working in Oregon are adding a new wrinkle to these presumptions, showing the risks could be far greater. Much of the Oregon, Washington and northern California coast is slowly rising — ...
The rise in global mean sea level (GMSL) is a critical indicator of climate change. Addressing this issue, researchers at Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU) have utilized advanced space geodetic ...
William & Mary’s Batten School and the Virginia Institute of Marine Science have released its yearly “report cards” for sea-level rise, and the city of Norfolk is once again near the top of the class.
