In the second webinar of the Monitoring Climate Change from Space series, Anny Cazenave (LEGOS), Science Leader of the Sea Level Climate Change Initiative (CCI) project, explores the dynamics of global, regional, and local sea level rise. She explains the data processing and retrieval algorithms behind satellite-derived Essential Climate Variables (ECVs) and examines the primary drivers of sea level change, including ocean warming and land ice melt, in the context of human-induced climate change. The webinar also highlights additional coastal factors, such as ground subsidence, that can amplify sea level rise, and discusses future scenarios and their potential impacts on coastal communities.
