NASA Says Sea-Level Rise Temporarily Slowed By Aquifers & Lakes
2016-02-15 23:03:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Nature World: For the first time, scientists can see how water storage on land affects how much and how fast sea levels have risen. An orbiting NASA satellite calculated the amount of water stored on Earth's continents, and the measurements revealed that terrestrial bodies are soaking up an extra 3.2 trillion tons of water, which is briefly mitigating the rise in sea level by approximately 20 percent. This land water is being stored in lakes, underground aquifers and the soil. Researchers from NASA's Jet Propulsion...

NOAA and NASA Team Up to Investigate Strong El Nio
2016-02-14 15:01:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Guardian: America's two leading climate science agencies are conducting an unprecedented survey via land, sea and air to investigate the current El Nio event and better understand its impact on weather systems that have brought both parched and soaking conditions to North America. The project, which will conclude in March, will deploy resources from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and NASA to analyze one of the strongest El Nios on record. El Nio is a periodic phenomenon in...
