Stories about: sea level rise  

NASA scientists say the ice shelf will break apart into icebergs and disappear by the time this decade is over

Study finds rivers and streams flowing on top of the ice sheet covering Greenland are causing sea levels to rise

Sea level rise is caused by the fact that, as the climate is getting warmer, ice sheets and glaciers are melting

This ice sheet is the world's second largest, stands to raise sea levels by 7 meters (23 feet), were it to melt

US wildlife protection agencies must do more to safeguard them

Study sheds new light on how global warming will transform coastlines worldwide

The water system beneath the Thwaites Glacier is several times bigger than the Everglades

The warming of our planet will trigger odd weather patterns, cause glaciers to shrink

Researchers document the glaciers' melting patterns, warn about their impact on sea levels

The rover will help researchers gain a better understanding of ice sheets in this region

Researchers argue that slowing down the predicted sea level rise is well within reach

The species faces great threats as global warming changes coastlines worldwide

The upper limit to which it can contribute is lower than first calculated
