The global sea level this summer is a quarter of an inch lower than last summer, according to NASA scientists, in sharp contrast to the gradual rise the ocean has experienced in recent years.

The change stems from two strong weather cycles over the Pacific Ocean — El Niño and La Niña — which shifted precipitation patterns, according to scientists at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif. The two cycles brought heavy rains to Brazil and Amazon, along with drought to the southern United States.

Researchers monitored the ocean’s width, height, temperature and salinity through satellites and robot-operated floats, and presented their findings Aug. 8 and 9 at the annual Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) Science Team Meeting in Austin, Tex.

“This year the continents got an extra dose of rain, so much so that global sea levels actually fell over most of the last year,” said Carmen Boening, an oceanographer and climate scientist at the lab, in a statement.

  1. Sea levels will continue to fall over the decades as the Earth shifts into a cooler – read, more anti-life – phase. Warmth is such a wonderful thing for life on Earth. Alas, if only it were so easy to keep warmth simply by encouraging Al Gore to emit more of his noxious hot air.

  2. Sea Level is not rising.
    Satellites show its been slowing for the last 10 years.
    It now appears to be falling.
    More proof that the global warming LIE is falling apart.

    I cant believe they are using the excuse that its raining too much.
    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
    What happened to all those Global Warming Droughts ?

  3. who the fuck is trying to measure that???
    Gilligan must be moving the lobster trap again…
    the professor is gonna be mad…
