The new site offers extensive data, projections, and educational resources to help communities prepare for rising seas.

  • The U.S. Interagency Task Force on Sea Level Change has launched the first-ever comprehensive sea level rise website, SeaLevel.GlobalChange.gov.
  • Developed with contributions from NASA, NOAA, and other federal agencies, the site provides the latest research, data, and educational content on sea level rise.
  • The website features user-friendly tools to check historical and projected sea level changes for specific U.S. coastal regions.
  • It aims to help policymakers, researchers, and the general public understand and prepare for the impacts of rising sea levels on coastal communities.
  • The site includes updates to the 2022 interagency report, which predicts U.S. coastlines will see an average sea level rise of 10 to 12 inches by 2050.
