This chart shows rising sea levels from data recorded by five satellites starting in 1993. The solid red line shows the trajectory of rise from 1993 - 2022, illustrating that the rate of rise has more than doubled. More on Earth's vital signs: climate.nasa.gov/vital-signs…
This is a chart showing rising sea levels from data recorded by a series of five satellites starting in 1993. The vertical axis shows measurements in centimeters while the horizontal axis shows the date range from 1993 - 2040. There is a solid red line swooping upward from the lower left to the upper right corner - it shows the trajectory of rise from 1993 to 2022 and that the rate of rise has more than doubled. This red line traces along a shaded blue area indicating the sea levels that have been recorded since 1993. There are natural deeps and peaks through this time frame and show a consistent trend upward.
