Scientist Interviews

The study shows that with higher sea level, fewer additional factors are needed to cause episodes of coastal flooding.

A new study is among the first to use statistical data and modeling to determine the causes of sea-level rise on the Northeast U.S. coast.

NASA Sea Level Change Team member Robert Kopp uses data on past sea-level rise to improve forecasts of what's to come – and to help coastal planners prepare.

The researchers shared their latest findings, and discussed how to make sea-level science more useful to planners and others preparing for changes on the U.S. coast.

To better predict changes in Antarctica's Thwaites Glacier, sea-level scientists turn their focus to the bedrock beneath.

The Surface Water and Ocean Topography mission will explore how the ocean absorbs atmospheric heat and carbon, moderating global temperatures and climate change.
