[HIGHLIGHTS] Climate: the rise in ocean levels experienced “a jump” between 2022 and 2023

Average rise in global ocean levels was 0.76 centimeters between 2022 and 2023. This is due to both El Nino and climate change, NASA said.

Ocean levels have risen on average by 9.4 cm since 1993, according to these data based on satellite observations. “The current pace means that we are on track to add another 20 cm to the global ocean level by 2050,” Nadya Vinogradova Shiffer, director of the team in charge of this file at NASA, said.
