A Bay Area representative wants to map rising groundwater, a hidden climate threat for the region that could flood ...
FLORIDA — A map projecting sea level rise shows which Florida cities are likely to be underwater by 2050. The map, which is developed by the Florida Climate Center at Florida State University ...
The funding allows earth sciences researcher Sophie Nowicki to continue leading an international ice sheet modeling project.
Scientists have a good idea how much average sea level will rise by 2050 — around 6 inches globally, and as much as 10 to 12 inches in the US. Past 2050, however, things get very fuzzy.
Scientists reconstructed 540 million years of sea level changes, showing Earth's oceans rose and fell by hundreds of feet ...
Sea level rise is the most profound long-term impact of the climate crisis, redrawing the map of the world and affecting many major cities from New York to Shanghai.
The United Nations reports, “Since the start of the 20th century, global-mean sea level has risen faster than over any prior century in at least the last 3,000 years, and the rate of increase is ...
Researchers have modeled sea level changes on thousand-year timescales for the past 540 million years. These insights offer better tools for mapping subsurface layers used in energy and waste storage.
