A buoy that reads 'No Boats' lays on cracked dry earth where water once was as people carry a boat further out to reach water at Lake Mead, Nevada. - Water levels in Lake Mead are at the lowest level since April 1937 when the reservoir was being filled for the first time, according to NASA, with satellite images this week showing a dramatic drop in water levels.
Overall, sea levels have risen by around four inches since 1993. The rate of increase has also accelerated, more than doubling from 0.07 inches per year in 1993, to the current rate of 0.17 inches per year. That would be double the amount of change in the next three decades compared to the previous century, she said, creating a future where flooding is far more frequent and catastrophic than today.The immediate cause of the spike is the El Niño weather effect, which replaced the La Niña from 2021 to 2022, when the sea level rose around 0.08 inches.
