Numerous land areas of the Earth sit below average sea level. These locations can number a surface elevation of just a few ...

Air defense power stems from a system's ability to find and take out a threat, putting mission effectiveness above ...

A July 2025 report from the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) claims that U.S. tide gauge measurements "in aggregate show no obvious acceleration in sea level rise beyond the historical average rate." ...

Sea-level rise changes coastlines, putting homes at risk, as Summer Haven, Fla., has seen. Aerial Views/E+/Getty Images Shaina Sadai, Five College Consortium and Ambarish Karmalkar, University of ...

When polar ice sheets melt, the effects ripple across the world. The melting ice raises average global sea level, alters ocean currents and affects temperatures in places far from the poles. But ...

New Jersey is likely to see between 2.2 and 3.8 feet of sea-level rise by 2100 if the current level of global carbon emissions continue, but seas could rise by as much as 4.5 feet if ice-sheet melt ...

SpaceX launched a joint NASA-European environmental research satellite early Monday, the second in an ongoing billion-dollar project to measure long-term changes in sea level, a key indicator of ...

It’s undeniable: The sea is rising. Property and infrastructure near and on the shoreline will be at risk of flooding. In Marin, that means San Rafael’s Canal neighborhood, Marin City and low-lying ...

Satellite data reveals sea-level rise has unfolded almost exactly as predicted by 1990s climate models, with one key underestimation: melting ice sheets. Researchers stress the importance of refining ...

Global sea levels have not continued to rise at the rates predicted by many scientists — and there is no evidence that climate change has contributed to any such acceleration, a new first-of-its-kind ...

Waves top the boardwalk at Mission Beach in San Diego during a king tide event in December 2023. Human-caused climate change is pushing global temperatures and global sea levels to new heights. In the ...
