The study concludes that sea level rise caused by human-released greenhouse gas emissions could make future volcanic activity projections inaccurate due to the rapid ongoing changes. To minimize ...

Researchers from the University of Toronto, Harvard and Rutgers Universities have found a way to identify the "sea level fingerprint" left by a particular sheet of ice - and possibly enable a more ...

Sea levels could rise by as much as two metres by 2100 in a worst-case scenario involving melting ice caps and high CO2 emissions, new research suggests.

Before Antarctica melts, its ice mass helps pull sea waters southwards. When the ice has melted into the sea, the gravitational field has changed, causing the oceans to the north to rise ...

Recent research conducted by an international team of scientists from Utrecht University, the UK, and the US has resulted in a significant advancement in the understanding of sea level changes ...

From an insurance standpoint, the risk of catastrophic losses due to storm-surge flooding increases with sea-level rise and increasing severe weather in Canada, the report said, noting that it is ...

Sinking land occurring in tandem with the rising sea spells trouble for California. By 2050, California sea levels are expected to rise between 6 and 14.5 inches higher than year 2000 levels.

Dr. Horton has attributed more than half the sea-level change observed during the 20th century to human activity.

Even if the world sustains today’s level of warming, at 1.2 degrees, it could still trigger rapid ice sheet retreat and catastrophic sea level rise, the scientists found. The Greenland and ...

The study also corrects long-standing errors in the satellite record of sea levels, finding that the global mean rate of sea level rise between 1993 and mid-2014 is between 2.6 and 2.9 millimetres ...

A 90-year sea level record (1930-2019) is constructed from the growth of a tropical coral and reveals a marked acceleration in sea-level rise in the central Indian Ocean beginning in 1959 (3.44 ± ...
