Adapting to rising seas will require a broader understanding of coastal systems, and of human responses to sea-level rise, a new study says.

An elephant seal helps scientists understand how the ocean transports heat between its upper and lower layers — important for estimating how much heat the ocean can absorb.

The U.S. and Europe are working together on the first 10-year mission to study global warming's effect on the oceans, extending sea level records to nearly 40 years.

Combining gravitational measurements yields a clearer picture of our planet's true shape.
