NASA | IPCC Projections of Temperature and Precipitation in the 21st Century

Climate models used by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change estimate global temperature and precipitation patterns will change throughout the 21st century given current rising greenhouse gas concentrations. This visualization is based on a scenario in which carbon dioxide concentrations reach 670 parts per million by 2100, up from around 400 ppm today.

The Hidden Meltdown of Greenland

NASA-supported researchers have found that ice covering Greenland is melting faster than previously thought. The action is happening out of sight, below the surface.

Understanding sea-level rise

NASA keeps track of sea level change and its causes.
