NASA has relaunched its Webby Award-winning website, Global Climate Change, with enhanced interactive features that play on any mobile device, state-of-the-art visuals, and new sections on climate change solutions and the people behind the science. <\/p>\n
First launched in 2008, the Global Climate Change website provides easy-to-understand information about the causes and effects of climate change and the ways NASA studies them, along with the latest climate news from the agency, graphics and visualizations. The URL is: http:\/\/climate.nasa.gov<\/a> <\/p>\n Highlights of the redesign include: <\/p>\n - An improved Vital Signs dashboard, providing interactive charts with continuously updated data on atmospheric carbon dioxide, sea level rise, Arctic ice extent, global temperature and other key indicators of climate change <\/p>\n - Visualizations of change over time from NASAs Scientific Visualization Studio <\/p>\n - A section that focuses on science and technology advances that are providing essential data for adapting to and mitigating the effects of climate change <\/p>\n - Making a Difference, a section that highlights NASAs climate researchers and the work they do <\/p>\n The updated site retains popular features of the earlier version, including the Images of Change gallery, the Climate Time Machine and the Eyes on the Earth data visualization tool. <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Go here to read the rest: <\/p>\n NASA Rolls Out Enhanced, Mobile-Friendly Climate Site<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" November 7, 2014 Provided by Carol Rasmussen, NASA Earth Science News Team NASA has relaunched its Webby Award-winning website, Global Climate Change, with enhanced interactive features that play on any mobile device, state-of-the-art visuals, and new sections on climate change solutions and the people behind the science.
