A new study published in Nature has found that sea levels along the world’s coastlines are already significantly higher than the majority of scientific assessments have assumed. The finding, which ...

A new 30-year analysis reveals that melting land ice is now the main force behind rising global sea levels. Researchers discovered that oceans rose about 90 millimeters since 1993, with most of the ...

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 ...

Adjusting to a more accurate coastal height baseline means that if seas rise by a little more than 3 feet — as some studies ...

Accelerating sea level rise driven by warming oceans and melting ice threatens coastal cities worldwide, placing up to a billion people at risk before the end of the century.

It’s usually a bad idea to generalize too much about anything – particularly science, where different selection pressures and environmental one-offs can tweak a basic model into something quite out of ...

New Jersey is likely to see between 2.2 and 3.8 feet of sea-level rise by 2100 if the current level of global carbon emissions continue, but seas could rise by as much as 4.5 feet if ice-sheet melt ...

In climate news, new research suggests that human activity is causing ocean levels to rise far faster than government planners previously thought, with tens of millions more people at risk of losing ...

The ‘Doomsday Glacier’ already contributes four per cent of annual sea level rise, but can the consequences of climate change ...

Satellite data shows the ground is sinking beneath many of the world’s biggest river delta cities, worsening flood and sea-level rise risks.
