Global coastal sea levels are on average 1 foot higher than previously assumed, a new report finds, raising alarms the world ...

After analyzing 385 studies related to coastal areas and sea level rise, scientists found a significant discrepancy between geoid measurements and actual sea levels, especially in the global south.

A systematic review of nearly 400 coastal hazard studies has found that the vast majority relied on flawed assumptions about where sea level actually sits, leading to significant underestimates of ...

A new study found that many of our predictions on sea-level rise have been predicated on inaccurate starting numbers. In many ...

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 ...

Rising temperatures are causing sea levels to rise around the world, putting millions at risk of severe flooding and coastal erosion. But in Greenland, the opposite is happening. Researchers at the ...

A new study in the journal Nature says most sea level rise research may have underestimated coastal water heights by an average of 1 foot.

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 ...

Researchers found that a majority of studies on coastal sea levels underestimated how high water levels are, and hundreds of millions of people are closer to peril than previously thought.
