The results represent an early step toward developing what researchers hope will become the ability to forecast whether a slow-moving landslide will fail and slide downhill.

A rigorous testing program is the best way to ensure that every part of the Surface Water and Ocean Topography mission, down to the ball bearings, will work smoothly in orbit.

Climate change is influencing habitat conditions and migratory patterns. Leveraging NASA Earth data, a software package measures the factors that influence animal movement and maps migratory preferences.

Ground-level ozone and climate go hand in hand – in more ways than one. In the Great Lakes region, NASA Earth data are helping state air quality agencies inform their decisions to protect public health.

According to satellite observations, Arctic sea ice reached its annual minimum extent (lowest amount of ice for the year) on Sept. 18, 2022. The ice cover shrank to an area of 4.67 million square kilometers (1.80 million square miles) this year, roughly 1.55 million square kilometers (598,000 square miles) below the 1981-2010 average minimum of 6.22 million square kilometers (2.40 million square miles).
Summer ice extent in and around the Arctic Ocean has declined significantly since satellites began measuring it consistently in 1978. The past 16 years (2007 to 2022) have been the lowest 16 minimum extents, with 2022 tying 2017 and 2018 for 10th-lowest in 44 years of observations. The satellite record is maintained by the National Snow and Ice Data Center (NSIDC), which hosts one of NASA’s Distributed Active Archive Centers.
“This year marks a continuation of the much-reduced sea ice cover since the 1980s,” said Walt Meier, a sea ice researcher at the National Snow and Ice Data Center. “That is not something that is random variations or chance. It represents a fundamental change in the ice cover in response to warming temperatures.”
Each year, Arctic sea ice melts through the warmer spring and summer months and usually reaches its minimum extent in September. As cooler weather and winter darkness sets in, the ice will grow again and reach its maximum extent around March.
Sea ice extent is defined as the total area in which ice concentration is at least 15%. This visualization, created at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland, shows fluctuations in Arctic sea ice extent from March through September 2022. The map is based on data acquired by the Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer 2 (AMSR2) instrument on the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency's Global Change Observation Mission 1st-Water “SHIZUKU” (GCOM-W1) satellite.

Summer 2022 — a season marked again by historic heat waves, widespread drought and torrential rains — ranks among the hottest on record, according to data from NASA and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
NASA data indicate June through August tied 2020 for the warmest summer worldwide in records dating back to 1880. Summer in the Northern Hemisphere also tied 2019 for the warmest on record.
NOAA data indicate the meteorological summer tied for the fifth warmest worldwide in 143 years of records, and the Northern Hemisphere experienced its second-warmest summer on record.
The disparity between the two data sets is explained by how each treats temperatures in the polar regions of the globe. NASA’s data set has more inputs from the Arctic and Antarctic regions, an area of the planet that is warming at a faster rate than other parts of the globe.
Regardless, both sets of data show that this summer was abnormally warm and that the world has warmed dramatically over the past century, especially since 1980. Summers have warmed by 0.47 degrees Fahrenheit (0.26 degrees Celsius) per decade since 1980.
“This is a remarkable testament to the persistence of ongoing global warming,” tweeted climate scientist Gavin Schmidt, who said August ranked as the warmest on record in North America.
Both NASA and NOAA affirm 2022 will almost assuredly rank in the top 10 warmest years on record. 2022 is also likely to be the eighth year in a row to be 2 degrees Fahrenheit (1 degree Celsius) warmer than the late 19th century.
The summer started out hot and hardly abated. NASA data indicated June 2022 tied for the hottest June on record, July tied for the third warmest and August ranked as the second warmest globally. NOAA said June, July and August, individually and collectively, were the sixth warmest on record.
All five of the warmest worldwide June-August periods have occurred since 2015, a sign of how the world’s warming continues to accelerate.
June consisted of major heat spells, many broken monthly records and extreme weather disasters around the world. Heavy rain and melted snowpack caused historic flooding and evacuations around Yellowstone National Park and nearby towns.
A heat wave swept across Japan in the middle of its rainy season, marking the worst streak of hot weather in June since 1875. Meanwhile, record rainfall fell across southern China and caused severe flooding and evacuations. The Norwegian city of Tromsø, located above the Arctic Circle, set a temperature record for the month.
July was marked by record heat waves in Europe . London hit 104 degrees, setting an all-time national temperature record. France, Germany, Spain, Ireland also set monthly records. The heat wave caused widespread fires and the worst glacier melt in the Alps, one of which triggered a fatal avalanche in Italy .
Most of the United States experienced above-normal to record-warm temperatures in July as well. Texas experienced its hottest July on record. At the end of the month, a prolonged heat wave in Northern California and the Pacific Northwest set records for the longest warm streaks in Portland and Seattle. The heat ignited wildfires, including the McKinney Fire that grew into California’s largest and deadliest fire of the year to date.
August 2022 was the hottest August recorded in North America and Europe and the second warmest August globally.
By August, around half of Europe was under drought warnings — the continent’s worst drought in at least 500 years. August also brought more intense heat to parts of the United States, especially in parts of the West .
China saw its warmest August and its warmest summer on record. The country battled a record-breaking heat wave and drought this summer, shrinking Poyang Lake, usually the largest freshwater body in the country, by more than two-thirds.
The heat was widespread across the globe. New Zealand saw its second warmest August on record, while Belgium recorded its hottest August ever, with the European nation’s data going back to 1833.
In Brazil, warmer-than-average temperatures fueled an active wildfire season in the Amazon. More than 33,000 blazes were detected in August, the most since 2010.
The heat also made August a bad month for sea ice — with the world seeing its fifth-lowest August sea ice extent on record.
In Antarctica, the sea ice extent fell to 4.2 percent below the August average, a record for the month. This is the third month in a row that Antarctica has seen its monthly record fall. In the Arctic, the August 2022 sea ice extent was a whopping 16.2 percent below the 1981-2010 average — the 13th-smallest on record.
Precipitation-wise, the headline of the month was a w etter-than-normal monsoon season that brought intense rainfall to Pakistan . Much of the lower-lying plains in southern Pakistan were covered by floodwaters in August, with the floods there killing nearly 1,500 people.
Across the globe, precipitation totals varied widely. Wetter-than-normal weather was observed not only in Pakistan but also parts of the southwest United States, northern Japan and western India.
Drier than normal weather was seen in the western United States, western Europe and southeast Asia. These dry conditions caused farmers to struggle to grow crops, led to difficulties in generating hydropower and fueled rapidly growing wildfires.
The summer fits in with a generally warmer year overall. So far, the world has seen above-average temperatures year-to-date. Per NOAA’s data, 2022 has been the sixth-warmest year on record from January through August, with a global average temperature 1.55 degrees higher than the 20th-century average.
Of the annual records, 2016 remains the warmest, but there is a less than 0.1 percent chance that 2022 manages to exceed that warmth.
Yet, all of the 10 warmest years on record have occurred since 2010. If the heat keeps up, 2022 is likely to enter the top 10 as well.
Understanding our climate: Global warming is a real phenomenon , and weather disasters are undeniably linked to it . As temperatures rise, heat waves are more often sweeping the globe — and parts of the world are becoming too hot to survive .

Police in central California hunting a serial killer responsible for at least six slayings on Tuesday released a short surveillance video showing a person of interest with an unusually upright posture.
Ballistics tests and some video evidence linked six fatal shootings and the wounding of a homeless woman that occurred in Stockton and Oakland between April 2021 and Sept. 27 of this year, cops said.
“We don’t know what the motive is. What we do believe is that it’s mission-oriented,” Stockton Police Chief Stanley McFadden said during a press conference. “This person’s on a mission.”
A seconds-long surveillance clip that was released on Tuesday shows a man dressed in all black walking along a street. The police chief took note of how “upright” the man’s posture is.
“I like to think we have a normal gait and walk about us when we walk around, but this person’s posture is extremely upright,” McFadden told reporters, adding that the man in the video also has an “uneven stride.”
The first fatal shooting happened in Oakland in April 2021. The woman was wounded in Stockton days later.
More than a year passed, then the five killings in Stockton took place between July 8 and Sept. 27, all within a radius of a few square miles, police said.
Although cops would not say whether all seven shootings had been linked to the same gun, McFadden alluded to a single pistol during the news conference.
“I have absolutely no answer as to why that pistol went dormant for over 400 days,” the chief said, referring the the 448-day lull between the second shooting and the third.
Authorities last week announced that five men in Stockton were ambushed and shot to death, alone in the dark. On Monday, police said the two additional cases last year had been tied to those killings by ballistic evidence.
The person of interest being sought in the case appears on video at several crime scenes, but no evidence directly links them to the shootings, McFadden said.
He added that some of the victims were homeless and some were not. All but one of the fatalities were Hispanic men.
The first killing targeted Juan Vasquez Serrano, 39, in Oakland at around 4:15 a.m. on April 10, 2021. He was shot multiple times, according to the Alameda County coroner’s bureau.
In the nonfatal attack, the 46-year-old unhoused woman, who is black, told investigators that she was inside her tent at Park and Union street on April 16, 2021 at about 3:20 a.m. when she heard someone walking around outside.
“When she came out of her tent, she encountered someone holding a gun,” McFadden said.
The suspect shot the woman multiple times, but she tried to defend herself by advancing toward her attacker, the chief said. The shooter lowered the gun.
“She said there were no words mentioned at all,” McFadden said.
The woman described the attacker as being between 5 feet 10 and six feet, wearing a dark-colored hooded sweatshirt with the hood pulled up, dark-colored pants and an all-black COVID-style face mask.
In the fatal Stockton cases, none of the men were robbed or beaten before the killings, and none appeared to have known one another, Stockton Police Officer Joseph Silva said. The shootings also do not appear to be related to gangs or drugs.
The San Joaquin County Office of the Medical Examiner identified the Stockton victims as Paul Yaw, 35, who died July 8; Salvador Debudey Jr., 43, who died Aug. 11; Jonathan Hernandez Rodriguez, 21, who died Aug. 30; Juan Cruz, 52, who died Sept. 21; and Lawrence Lopez Sr., 54, who died Sept. 27.
Yaw’s mother, Greta Bogrow, described her son, who was homeless at the time of his death, to the station KCRA as “a great man with a big heart.”
Debudey was in a parking lot in the 4900 block of West Lane when he was shot and pronounced dead at the scene, leaving behind his wife and daughter.
“It’s caused a lot of pain, a lot of pain to our family,” said Debudey’s widow, Analydia Lopez.
Shortly before 2 a.m. Sept. 27, Lopez was in the 900 block of Porter Avenue when he was shot and killed.
He “was just a person who was out here at the wrong place, at the wrong time, at the wrong circumstance,” his brother, Jerry Lopez, told KXTV-TV . “It’s hard to process that this has happened.
Police said four of the Stockton homicide victims were walking alone and a fifth was in a parked car when they were killed in the evening or early morning.
There is now a $125,000 reward for information leading to an arrest. Police are fielding hundreds of tips daily, as well as submitting additional evidence in case other crimes in the state can be connected to the spate of shootings.
