After analyzing 385 studies related to coastal areas and sea level rise, scientists found a significant discrepancy between geoid measurements and actual sea levels, especially in the global south.

Iran is militarily far better equipped than its Houthi proxies in Yemen, which caused considerable damage and disruption in the Red Sea between November 2023 and January 2025. Armed by Iran, the ...

Melting glaciers and ice sheets are raising sea levels while the Arctic is poised to log one of its worst winters on record.

Two video cameras and a weather station near Marconi Beach in Wellfleet help USGS scientists test water level warning system for the Atlantic Coast.

The Cascade Subduction Zone affects where the ocean meets the land, and that land is rising in some parts of the Oregon Coast.

A peer-reviewed study published in Nature on March 4, 2026, finds that up to 132 million more people worldwide may be exposed to sea-level rise than previous assessments suggested. The core problem is ...

The ocean is higher than we thought, by up to 3 feet. Scientists just found a decades-old blind spot in sea level science, ...

Many coastal maps start from the wrong sea-level baseline, and correcting the error could mean millions more are vulnerable ...

Abstract: Global navigation satellite system-reflectometry (GNSS-R) provides an effective remote sensing technique for accurate retrieval of sea surface height (SSH) measurements. However, accuracy is ...

A study published in Nature on March 4, 2026, found that more than 99% of coastal hazard assessments conducted over the past 16 years used flawed sea-level data, meaning actual ocean levels are ...

Gravity may seem constant, but it actually varies across the planet—and one of the strangest places is Antarctica, where gravity is slightly weaker than expected. Scientists have traced this “gravity ...

A UC Irvine-led study used international and commercial satellites to measure glaciers and found more than three-quarters of Antarctica’s coast-reaching glaciers to be stable, with the other quarter ...
