- New NASA Satellite Survey Reveals Dramatic Arctic Sea Ice Thinning - NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory
Arctic sea ice thinned dramatically between the winters of 2004 and 2008, with thin seasonal ice replacing thick older ice as the dominant type for the first time on record. The new results, based on data from a NASA Earth-orbiting spacecraft, provide further evidence for the rapid, ongoing transformation of the Arctic's ice cover.

- NOAA - Death of Young Right Whale Highlights that Prevention of Entanglements is Key
Death of Young Right Whale Highlights that Prevention of Entanglements is Key Entanglements and Ship Strikes Biggest Threats to Endangered Right Whales. The death of a young right whale off Florida drives home the point that while disentanglement responses give the animals a better chance at survival, prevention of entanglements in fishing gear is paramount. On February 3, NOAA scientist Barb Zoodsma joined partners from numerous state and local agencies, along with researchers from academic institutions and nonprofits organizations, to perform a necropsy – animal autopsy – on a young right whale. The animal was observed floating dead off St Augustine, FL, by an aerial survey team.

- NOAA Education Resources: Ocean and Coasts Theme Homepage
The ocean covers 71 percent of the Earth's surface and contains 97 percent of the planet's water, yet more than 95 percent of the underwater world remains unexplored. The ocean and large inland lakes play an integral role in many of the Earth's systems including climate and weather. More than 50% of all species on Earth are found under the ocean and the ocean helps sustain human life above the water by providing 20 percent of the animal protein and five percent of the total protein in the human diet. In the US alone, there are over 95,000 miles of shoreline. More than half of the US population lives within 50 miles of the coast in the narrow area of land known as the "coastal zone."

- NOAA Environmental Visualization Laboratory
Viewing Images and Video Images - The majority of the images found on the EVL website are created from NOAA satellite data, primarily the GOES and POES spacecraft. Imagery is available in JPG or PNG format in a variety of medium and high resolution formats; however some images are available for very high resolution printing. Animations and video - The EVL is constantly looking for the best way to deliver high quality digital video compatible with the major video playback architectures. We use the latest video industry standard, MPEG-4 with H.264 compression, for its compatibility in broadcast and DVD production and Flash for its universal support in internet browsers. Our video can be viewed in the latest Apple QuickTime, Windows Media, Real and MPEG-compat

- NOVA | Making Stuff: Cleaner
Can innovations in materials science help clean up our world? In "Making Stuff: Cleaner," David Pogue explores the rapidly developing science and business of clean energy and examines alternative ways to generate it, store it, and distribute it. Is hydrogen the way to go? What about lithium batteries? Does this solve an energy problem or create a new dependency? Pogue investigates the latest developments in bio-based fuels and in harnessing solar energy for our cars, homes, and industry in a program full of the stuff of a sustainable future.
