| 説明 | Twitter:Long term measurements continued by #Jason3 will help us track global sea level rise. www.nesdis.noaa.gov/jason-3/index.html#Jason3 is the latest in a series of satellites that tracks the rate of global sea-level rise. www.nesdis.noaa.gov/jason-3/index.htmlFacebook:Global sea level rise is a fundamental indicator of climate change and is one of the primary impacts of human-produced warming. The high accuracy of satellite altimetry is an efficient method for monitoring the variation of global mean sea level in relation to global climate change. Jason-3 will continue these 23 years of global measurements.An altimeter record of several decades will be needed to clarify whether the rate of sea-level rise is accelerating. Decadal variability in the ocean has been shown to have an impact on fishery regime changes and correlates with droughts and changes in hurricane activity. An altimeter time series of several decades will be needed to distinguish signals related to anthropogenic warming from those related to natural variability. And on a seasonal to inter-annual timescales, ocean atmosphere interactions in the tropical Pacific, the El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) phenomena, currently provide much of the signal for seasonal forecasts. View the satellite record of sea level rise at climate.nasa.gov/vital-signs/sea-level/.Jason-3 will continue the satellite altimetry observations of global sea surface height that began in 1992 with the TOPEX/Poseidon mission. It follows the Ocean Surface Topography Mission on the current operational altimeter satellite, Jason-2. As with Jason-2, Jason-3 is an international cooperative mission, in which NOAA is partnering with NASA, the Centre National d'Etudes Spatiales (CNES, France’s governmental space agency) and European Organisation for the Exploitation of Meteorological Satellites (EUMETSAT). A nominal three year lifetime is planned for Jason-3 with a possibility of a two year extended mission. Learn more: www.nesdis.noaa.gov/jason-3/mission.html |
