Satellite observations show the ice sheets are melting faster than expected, and slowing sea level rise to a manageable rate ...

Zero elevation is defined as the isobar where the atmospheric pressure is equal to 610.5 Pa (for reference, “sea level” on earth has an atmospheric pressure of 101.5 kPa). Though seemingly ...

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

A new study gives alarming glimpse into the future, as some scientists warn these currents could be just decades from ...

Past ice sheets have retreated rapidly, raising global sea level at rates >1 cm per year, with marine ice sheets collapsing and terrestrial ice sheets retreating in a more gradual fashion.
