Observing COVID-19 Impacts

Throughout 2020, NASA is leveraging existing datasets, adapting ongoing NASA projects, and funding new research to better understand the pandemic’s effect on our global environment.

Rising Seas

Earth’s seas are rising, a direct result of a changing climate. Ocean temperatures are increasing, leading to ocean expansion. And as ice sheets and glaciers melt, they add more water. An armada of increasingly sophisticated instruments, deployed across the oceans, on polar ice and in orbit, reveals significant changes among globally interlocking factors that are driving sea levels higher.
