Instagram: NASA Hosts TV Program On Sea Level Rise

Sea surface height change from 1992 to 2019, with colorbar This visualization shows total sea level change between 1992 and 2019, based on data collected from the TOPEX/Poseidon, Jason-1, Jason-2, and Jason-3 satellites. Blue regions are where sea level has gone down, and orange/red regions are where sea level has gone up. Since 1992, seas around the world have risen an average of nearly 6 inches. The color range for this visualization is -15 cm to +15 cm (-5.9 inches to +5.9 inches), though measured data extends above and below 15 cm (5.9 inches). This particular range was chosen to highlight variations in sea level change.

Iceberg footage in Disko Bay near Ilulissat, Greenland filmed in July, 2015.

Visualization of the mass change over Greenland from January 2004 through June 2014. The surface of Greenland shows the change in equivalent water height while the graph overlay shows the total accumulated change in gigatons. GRACE, NASA s ice sheets.This animations shows the change in the the Greenland Ice Sheet between January 2004 and June 2014. The 1-arc-deg NASA GSFC mascon solution data was resampled to a 998 x 1800 data array using Kriging interpolation. A color scale was applied in the range of +250 to -250 centimeters of equivalent water height, where blue values indicate an increase in the ice sheet mass while red shades indicate a decrease. In addition, the running sum total of the accumulated mass change over the Greenland Ice Sheet is shown on a graph overlay in gigatons.Technical Note: The glacial isostatic adjustment signal (Earth mass redistribution in response to historical ice loading) has been removed using the ICE-6G model (Peltier et al. 2015).

A reel of helicopter footage taken in July of 2015 over Greenland including a transit from Kangerlussuaq, Greenland to a field camp on the ice sheet, operated by UCLA s Larry Smith footage over the Ilulissat IceFjord and nearby glaciers.

Views of Greenlandic scenery from Kangerlussuaq, the terminous of the Russell Glacier, and the Ilulissat region.

Various scenes of water melting from the Greenland Ice Sheet on its way to the sea.

UCLA s Larry Smith, Vena Chu from UC Berkeley and other reserachers conduct work in the ablation, or melt zone of the Greenland Ice Sheet. The work included the deployment of floating sensors, conducting 72 continuous hours of melt water profiles, and ice mapping using fixed-wing drones. NASA, the National Science Foundation, and universities support a variety of field research in Greenland. Grace Andrews and her colleague sample melt water originating from the Russell Glacier as part of a study on C02 evasion led by Andrew Jacobson from Northwestern University.

Spinning globe showing TOPEX/JASON 22-year sea level data. Earth spins once before camera zooms into West Atlantic, East Pacific, and West Pacific regions. With colorbarThis video is also available on our YouTube channel. This visualization shows total sea level change between 1992 and 2014, based on data collected from the TOPEX/Poseidon, Jason-1, and Jason-2 satellites. Blue regions are where sea level has gone down, and orange/red regions are where sea level has gone up. Since 1992, seas around the world have risen an average of nearly 3 inches. The color range for this visualization is -7 cm to +7 cm (-2.76 inches to +2.76 inches), though measured data extends above and below 7cm(2.76 inches). This particular range was chosen to highlight variations in sea level change. Spinning globe showing TOPEX/JASON 22-year sea level data.

An animation up the Greenland s Applied Physics Lab and accurately registered to the topography data. Each of six tile sets represents data for one year between 2000 and 2013, while the final one is a composite of the six years that has most areas of missing data resolved. Each of these tile sets consist of a 5 x 5 array of 421 megapixel tiles. The false color of the surface is derived as follows. Three different color scales are applied to the floating point Radarsat reflectance data based on their relationship within the GIMP masks. Areas within the ice sheet mask are mapped to a color ramp from white (high) to grey (low). Areas within the land region of the ocean mask but not in the ice sheet mask are similarly mapped to a color ramp of light to dark tan. The area indicating ocean is mapped to blue.

The Helheim ExperienceTake a few minutes to sit back, put on your headphones, go full screen, and enjoy a birds-eye view of a vast expanse of Greenland s a small dose of how it feels to be part of the IceBridge team during a typical Kangerlussuaq morning, from that frigid ride to the airfield to wheels up over gorgeous Greenlandic scenery. Helheim Footage for Instagram This flight footage was taken from the cockpit of a NASA C-130 aircraft en route to the Helheim Glacier in eastern Greenland. Helheim has shrunk considerably in recent years. (Music courtesy Moby.)
