While satellites have revolutionized our ability to measure sea level with remarkable precision, their data becomes less ...

William & Mary’s Batten School and the Virginia Institute of Marine Science have released its yearly “report cards” for sea-level rise, and the city of Norfolk is once again near ...

Even if global warming is capped at 1.5°C, catastrophic sea-level rise is inevitable, potentially displacing millions. Melting ice sheets are accelerating this rise, overwhelming coastal defenses ...

Even if the world sustains today’s level of warming, at 1.2 degrees Celsius (2.2 degrees Fahrenheit), it could still trigger rapid ice sheet retreat and catastrophic sea level rise, the ...

Efforts to limit the global temperature increase to 1.5°C under the Paris Climate Agreement may not go far enough to save the world’s ice sheets, according to a new study.

Since 2015, almost every country on Earth has been bound by the Paris Agreement to try and keep global warming below 1.5°C.. But climate scientists now warn that this limit is too high - and ...

Earth’s major climate goal is too warm for the polar ice sheets, study says. If Earth stays at its current levels of warming — below policymakers’ goal of 1.5 degrees Celsius — polar ice ...

The last report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), published in 2021, predicted 1 to 2 metres of sea level rise over many centuries if the rise in temperature was limited to ...
