LOS ANGELES, March 22 (Xinhua) -- Global average sea level rose by about 0.3 inches (0.76 centimeters) from 2022 to 2023, a relatively large jump due mostly to a warming climate and the development of a strong El Niño, according to a new NASA analysis.

This analysis is based on a sea level dataset featuring more than 30 years of satellite observations, NASA said on Thursday.
