Last year, the hottest on record, the annual rate of the rise was 5.9 millimetres, compared to the expected 4.3 millimeters, according to NASA analysis. Overall, the rate of sea level rise doubled ...

Coastal models enhance understanding of future flooding frequency on atoll islands, paving the way to explore the limits of adaptation in the face of rising sea levels and climate change.

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

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

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 ...

A new study found parts of Antartica could pass a tipping point for mass ice sheet losses as soon as 2050 – pushing sea ...

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 ...

In recent years, about two-thirds of sea level rise was from the addition of water from land into the ocean by melting ice sheets and glaciers. About a third came from thermal expansion of seawater.
