Satellite data show that Antarctica and Greenland are losing hundreds of gigatonnes of (land-based) ice each year. But how big is just one gigatonne? Look ⬇️ for answers (and cool visualizations)! climate.nasa.gov/news/2933/v…

As sea levels rise, Virginia's coastal flooding is getting worse – especially during hurricanes. @NASA’s Disasters Program provides satellite data to help cities understand which areas are most at risk. #SpaceForUS go.nasa.gov/2GOfoMe

In July 2019, a major melting event spread across the Greenland Ice Sheet. Billions of tons of meltwater streamed into the Atlantic Ocean throughout the month, making a direct and immediate contribution to sea level rise. earthobservatory.nasa.gov/im… #Greenland #NASA #Landsat

Happening right now! #IceBridge is flying its inaugural survey of the 2018 Antarctic campaign. Among the targets today, a series of underflights of #ICESat2 tracks. Stay tuned for amazing icy photos (meanwhile, here's one from the DC-8's transit to Chile.)
