Sea level rise - Wikipedia Sea surface height change from 1992 to 2019: Blue regions are where sea level has gone down, and orange red regions are where sea level has risen (the visualization is based on satellite data) [2] The sea level has been rising from the end of the last ice age, which was around 20,000 years ago [3]
Climate Change: Global Sea Level - NOAA Climate. gov Global mean sea level has risen about 8–9 inches (21–24 centimeters) since 1880 The rising water level is mostly due to a combination of melt water from glaciers and ice sheets and thermal expansion of seawater as it warms
Sea Level Rise - National Geographic Society Sea level rise poses a serious threat to coastal life around the world Consequences include increased intensity of storm surges, flooding, and damage to coastal areas In many cases, this is where large population centers are located, in addition to fragile wildlife habitats
Is sea level rising? - NOAAs National Ocean Service Sea level rise at specific locations may be more or less than the global average due to many local factors: subsidence, upstream flood control, erosion, regional ocean currents, variations in land height, and whether the land is still rebounding from the compressive weight of Ice Age glaciers
Tracking 30 Years of Sea Level Rise - NASA Earth Observatory Scientists have found that global mean sea level—shown in the line plot above and below—has risen 10 1 centimeters (3 98 inches) since 1992 Over the past 140 years, satellites and tide gauges together show that global sea level has risen 21 to 24 centimeters (8 to 9 inches)
Sea Level - Climate Change: Vital Signs of the Planet Sea level rise is caused primarily by two factors related to global warming: the added water from melting ice sheets and glaciers, and the expansion of seawater as it warms The first graph tracks the change in global sea level since 1993, as observed by satellites
