Sea Level Rising

Britain's King Charles will be offered the title of high chief in Samoa in a three-day visit starting Wednesday and will be shown the impact of rising sea levels due to climate change in the Pacific island nation.

Satellites are providing critical evidence for the climate crisis. With the highest global temperatures recorded in 2024 and sea levels rising consistently for 30 years, satellite data points to a clear climate crisis. This data helps scientists track environmental changes, making it crucial for informing policymakers and guiding global responses t...

Raising concern over climate change DGM, IMD, Dr Mrutyunjay Mohapatra said that an ice-melting process in polar regions is causing sea-level rise and coastal areas are facing problems, especially during cyclones.

Recent research on the Thwaites Glacier in Antarctica shows alarming rates of melting that could significantly impact global sea levels. Scientists from the International Thwaites Glacier Collaboration, including Rob Larter and Kiya Riverman, discovered that Thwaites’ retreat may lead to a rise of up to 10 feet in sea levels, threatening coastal ...

Moot, who believes "Life's too short" to miss out on such opportunities, purchased the house at 67% less than its 2022 asking price of $1.195 million.

United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said on Tuesday ocean temperatures are rising in the Pacific Islands at three times the rate worldwide, and its population was "uniquely exposed" to the impact of rising sea levels.

Sea level rises in the Pacific Ocean are outstripping the global average, a World Meteorological Organization (WMO) report showed on Tuesday, imperiling low-lying island states.

Recent research reveals that Greenland, now 98% covered in ice, was almost entirely ice-free at some point in the last million years. Fossils of plants like willow and Arctic poppy, found in an ice core sample from the island’s center, suggest a once-thriving tundra ecosystem. This discovery is significant because it challenges previous beliefs t...

A new study has revealed that predicting the timing of catastrophic climate events, such as the collapse of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC), is extremely difficult.

More than 10 per cent of the land in Mumbai and up to 10 per cent in Panaji and Chennai are at risk of inundation by 2040 due to climate change-induced sea-level rise, according to a new study.

Climate related stressors like heat, wildfires, floods, droughts, diseases and rising sea levels affect education outcomes and threaten to undo educational gains of recent decade, according to the Global Education Monitoring Report (GEM).

Scientists have discovered a new tipping point toward "runaway melting" of Antarctic ice sheets, caused by warm ocean water intruding between the ice and the land it sits on, according to a study published on Tuesday.

The Maldives on Saturday demanded international funding to battle rising sea levels, saying the low-lying Indian Ocean archipelago was being unfairly excluded from the most generous support measures.

Thailand may have to consider relocating its capital Bangkok because of rising sea levels, a senior official in the country's climate change office told AFP on Wednesday.

At coastal locations globally, heatwaves accompanied by an extreme sea level rise in the short-term have significantly increased between 1998 and 2017, with the tropics seeing a "pronounced increase", according to new research.
