Understanding past sea level change is necessary for predicting future sea level rise. The main contributors to sea level variability are ice sheet change, ocean water temperature change (e.g., ...

Baltyuor opens up about the central role the Red Sea International Film Festival has in the country's drive to become a global production hub. By Abid Rahman International Editor, Digital But wait, ...

For around 2,000 years, global sea levels varied little. That changed in the 20th century. They started rising and have not stopped since — and the pace is accelerating. Scientists are scrambling to ...

Sea level rise — mostly due to glacial melt largely caused by anthropogenic climate change — has been a hot button topic for the past half century. But historically defining the basic parameters of ...

New geological data has given more insight into the rate and magnitude of global sea level rise following the last ice age, about 11,700 years ago. This information is of great importance to ...

In the mid-fifteen-hundreds, a Swedish peasant named Nils lived on an island called Iggön in the Baltic Sea. He was known to his neighbors as Rich Nils, apparently because of the plenitude of fish in ...

When polar ice sheets melt, the effects ripple across the world. The melting ice raises average global sea level, alters ocean currents and affects temperatures in places far from the poles. But ...

Global sea levels have not continued to rise at the rates predicted by many scientists — and there is no evidence that climate change has contributed to any such acceleration, a new first-of-its-kind ...

Shaina Sadai has received funding from the National Science Foundation and the Hitz Family Foundation. Ambarish Karmalkar receives funding from National Science Foundation. When polar ice sheets melt, ...
