Earths average temperature has risen over 1º F in the past century. It is projected to rise an additional 3º and 10º over the next 100 years. Data from NASAs global network of satellites, airborne missions and surface monitoring systems is used to build climate models that help us understand the causes & effects of global warming. :::LEARN MORE::: Key Indicators: Global Surface Temperature: climate.nasa.gov/key_indicators/#globalTemp National Climate Assessment: Recent U.S. Temperature Trends nca2014.globalchange.gov/report/our-changing-climate/recent-us-temperature-trends National Climate Assessment: Projected Global Temperature nca2014.globalchange.gov/highlights/overview/overview#graphic-20895 How Will Global Warming Change Earth? earthobservatory.nasa.gov/Features/GlobalWarming/page6.php Long-term Global Warming Trend Sustained in 2013 climate.nasa.gov/news/1029/ The Current and Future Consequences of Global Change climate.nasa.gov/effects/ Earths Big Heat Bucket earthobservatory.nasa.gov/Features/HeatBucket/ Interactive: Climate Time Machine climate.nasa.gov/interactives/climate_time_machine Quiz: Global Warming climate.nasa.gov/climate_resource_center/16 :::NASA MISSIONS & RESEARCH::: OCO-2 - Orbiting Carbon Observatory-2 oco.jpl.nasa.gov/ AIRS - Atmospheric Infrared Sounder airs.jpl.nasa.gov/ MODIS - Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer modis.gsfc.nasa.gov/index.php OSTM/Jason-2 - Ocean Surface Topography Mission https://sealevel.jpl.nasa.gov/ GISTEMP - GISS Surface Temperature Analysis data.giss.nasa.gov/gistemp/ :::FOR EDUCATORS::: NASA Wavelength nasawavelength.org/resource-search?qq=global+warming Climate Kids: What is Global Climate Change? climatekids.nasa.gov/climate-change-meaning/ Release Date: 02 October 2014 Credit: NASA Climate Change
