Video: NASA scientists release the first new global map of Earth at night since 2012.

A quick guide to the science behind sea level rise from an ice-loss perspective, what it means in relatable terms and why it matters.

This animation shows how various temperature records and Arctic sea ice have changed between 1850 and 2018 from human and natural drivers of climate change.

This visualization depicts changes in Greenland land ice thickness as measured by the ICESat and ICESat-2 satellites.

This movie shows the evolution of several regions of the Greenland Ice Sheet between 2008 and 2300 based on three different climate scenarios.

Video: Explore how scientists determine glacial speed from space.

A view from one of our flying science laboratories over the ice in Greenland during Operation IceBridge.

Video: Global sea level rise is accelerating incrementally over time rather than increasing at a steady rate.

The past decade has been the hottest ever recorded since global temperature records began 150 years ago. This video discusses the impacts of the sun's energy, Earth's reflectance and greenhouse gasses on global warming.

Color-coded map of changing global surface temperature anomalies from 1880 through 2022. 

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.

Video: Images created from GRACE data showing changes in Greenland ice mass since 2002.

Video: Images created from GRACE data showing changes in Antarctic ice mass since 2002.

This animation shows the movement of carbon dioxide between the air and sea with the help of ocean surface winds from Jan. 3, 2012 to Aug. 15, 2012.

An animation shows several high impact events across the globe between August 2019 and January 2020, including the Australian bushfires.

Video: how different factors, both natural and industrial, contribute to global warming.

Durante más de 20 años, la NASA ha estado rastreando la topografía de la superficie global del océano para comprender el importante papel que desempeña en nuestras vidas.

Ice covers 10 percent of Earth's surface and helps moderate the planet's temperature. Glaciers and ice sheets around the world are melting at an alarming rate. By keeping an eye on Earth's ice from space, NASA satellites help us understand the global effects of climate change.

Video: Winter temperatures are soaring in the Arctic for the fourth winter in a row.

Salinity plays a major role in global ocean circulation and changes in salinity may impact regional and global climates. NASA's Aquarius mission is painting a global picture of our planet's salty waters.

Land. Water. Fire. Ice. These elements are basic ingredients that make up planet Earth. Take a moment to admire the magnificent spectacle of our stunning home planet from the perspective of space.

Take a 360-degree view of an iceberg and sea ice during Operation IceBridge flights over Greenland.

La NASA no estudia solo las estrellas y los planetas; también le preocupa la tierra debajo de tus pies.

Video: Using observations from NASA's Orbiting Carbon Observatory (OCO-2) satellite, scientists developed a model of the behavior of carbon in the atmosphere from September 1, 2014 to August 31, 2015.

NASA explores. From its earliest days of sounding rockets and balloon-borne instruments, to Apollo and Hubble and missions to Mars. This mission of exploration has also always focused on our own corner of the universe, Earth - the home frontier. Earth is still the only planet we've ever been to, as this video explains.
