An animation showing “sea level fingerprints,” or patterns of rising and falling sea levels across the globe in response to changes in Earth’s gravitational and rotational fields. Major changes in water mass can cause localized bumps and dips in gravity, sometimes with counterintuitive effects. Melting glaciers, for example, actually cause nearby sea level to drop; as they lose mass, their gravitational pull slackens, and sea water migrates away. In this animation, computed from data gathered by

For over 20 years, satellite altimeters have measured the sea surface height of our ever-changing oceans. This series of images shows the complicated patterns of rising and falling ocean levels across the globe from 1993 to 2015. Sea levels reflect changing currents (which tilt the sea surface), the redistribution of heat (which makes sea levels higher) and the long term rise in global sea levels that is the result of human-caused warming. The globally averaged rise is traced out in the bottom r

For over 20 years NASA has been tracking the global surface topography of the Ocean in order to understand the important role it plays in our daily lives. Climate change is causing our ocean to warm and glaciers to melt, resulting in sea level rise. Since 1880, the global sea level has risen 8 inches; By 2100, it is projected to rise another 1 to 4 feet. :::LEARN MORE::: Key Indicators: Sea Level http://climate.nasa.gov/key_indicators/#seaLevel National Climate Assessment: Sea Level Rise http://

UPDATE: Global average sea level continues to rise at 3.4 millimeters (0.13 inches) per year since 1993. The IPCC says we will see more sea level rise in the 21st century, with extreme events (like severe coastal flooding) happening every year by the end of the century: https://sealevel.nasa.gov/understanding-sea-level/key-indicators/global-mean-sea-level | NASA Climate Change

Sea level update 🌊 Global average sea level rose by about 0.3 inches (0.76 centimeters) from 2022 to 2023, according to a @NASA-led analysis. This relatively large jump is due mostly to a warming climate and the development of a strong El Niño. With more than 30 years of satellite observations, the data show that global average sea level has risen about 4 inches (9.4 centimeters) since 1993 and the rate of increase has more than doubled. “Current rates of acceleration mean that we are on track

Sea level rise is happening all around the planet. Local weather patterns, currents & more can affect when and how high sea levels rise in different places. With NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration's OceanWorks, researchers can look at how sea level rise is happening around the globe. https://go.nasa.gov/38lBZOX Ensuring that measurements of sea level from space are accurate requires us to know exactly where measurements were taken.
