Gizmag: On Aug. 26, NASA held a media teleconference regarding current predictions on sea level rise, highlighting the risks to coastal populations in low-lying areas, and the inherent problems in creating reliable global models. A panel of experts from NASA's recently-founded Sea Level Change Team tells us that ocean levels are inexorably on the rise, but gaps in our understanding and ability to survey risk regions mean we don't know just how fast the change will take place. "People need to be prepared...

Sea Level Rising Faster Than Expected, NASA Warns
2015-08-27 15:04:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
EcoWatch: New research underway indicates that at least three feet of global sea level rise is near certain, National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) scientists warned Wednesday. Thats the higher range of the one to three feet level of rise the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) gave in its 2013 assessment. Sea levels have already risen three inches on average since 1992, with some areas experiencing as much as a 9-inch rise. Given what we know now about how the ocean expands...

NASA: Rising Sea Levels More Dangerous Than Thought
2015-08-27 02:40:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
LiveScience: The consequences of global sea level rise could be even scarier than the worst-case scenarios predicted by the dominant climate models, which don't fully account for the fast breakup of ice sheets and glaciers, NASA scientists said today (Aug. 26) at a press briefing. What's more, sea level rise is already occurring. The open question, NASA scientists say, is just how quickly the seas will rise in the future. Rising seas The current warming of the seas and the associated expansion of their...
