## Who's Behind the Earth Information Center?

The Earth Information Center is coordinated by NASA in partnership with EPA, FEMA, NOAA, USAID, USDA and USGS. These agencies are collaborating to prototype development of the center with the goal of providing actionable, easy-to-use data and information about earth's changing systems to the public. This includes collaboratively developing a curated collection of datasets, workflows, data stories and visualizations from across the federal government that help satisfy this mission.

The Center acts as a facilitator of and venue for this collaboration
Physical EIC exhibits showcase the federal government's data assets on Earth and demonstrate how these assets are being used to make critical decisions in the US and across the world
Earth.gov allows the public to use these data assets to inform their own decisions about how to prepare for a changing climate and respond to environmental challenges that effect their families, businesses and communities

## Info

The effects of sea level change have been observed across the world.
Hazards such as coastal flooding can pose health and safety risks for seaside residents and displace vulnerable communities.
Hazards such as coastal flooding can pose health and safety risks for seaside residents.

At the local scale, scientists study a variety of factors that contribute to regional sea level change including periodic change in sea level due to storm surges, ice melt, the amount of water stored on land (including rivers, lakes and aquifers), land subsistence and changes in water temperature and salinity.
At the global scale, loss of ice through melting glaciers and icesheets, thermal expansion from heat trapped in oceans and changes in the amount of water stored on land all influence the amount of change in sea level observed.
Understanding how these factors change on a global scale also allows us to better understand changes in Earth's atmosphere and oceans.

Using a combination space-based observations, ground-based monitoring and modeling, federal agencies work with local organizations across the country and internationally to prepare for and mitigate the impacts of sea level change.
