Event Details
Global sea level rise is one of the major environmental challenges of the 21st century. As lead scientist for multiple NASA JPL projects, Josh Willis and team are addressing this urgent problem from above and below. The Jason and Sentinel-6 satellites are measuring sea levels from space, and Oceans Melting Greenland, an airborne mission, is probing the island's warming coastal waters to help better predict the rising seas of the future. In this lecture, Willis will discuss how these missions will provide revolutionary data for modeling ocean and ice interactions and lead to improved estimates of global sea level rise.
