Advancing NASA Sea Level Science and Interdisciplinary Research

Climate Tools

Visualize and access information and data relevant to understanding and planning for sea level rise in response to ongoing climate change.

Analysis Tools

Analyze and download satellite, in situ, reanalysis and modeled data associated with sea level change and the processes that contribute to it.
  • Data Analysis Tool

    Analyze NASA data with the Data Analysis Tool. Perform regional statistical analysis, time series analysis and comparison.
  • Virtual Earth System Laboratory

    The Virtual Earth System Laboratory includes simulations related to glaciers, ice sheets, sea level and solid earth.

Understanding Sea Level

NASA keeps track of sea level change and its causes from space. Find out more about how NASA satellite observations help our understanding of this complex topic.

Explore the main causes: ice melt and heat-driven expansion of ocean water
