The geoid represents the wavy surface of sea level across the Earth's uneven mass distribution, influenced by terrain and density variations.
Hemispherical maps of the Moon reveal that its far side is more heavily cratered than the near side due to a thinner crust on the latter, which allowed volcanic activity to create smooth “maria”.
Projections of global annual mean sea-level changes, referencing a baseline from 1986–2005.
Annual evolution of the Earth's "Ozone Hole" over Antarctica from 1970 to 2023.
Yearly evolution of the Earth's ozone layer from 1970 to 2023. It highlights the ozone depletion, particularly over Antarctica, leading to the "ozone hole".

Baseline and variants of the Local Distance Network for accurately determining the Hubble constant. It includes various techniques for gauging galactic distances, linking geometric approaches to establish H0.
The ionosphere–thermosphere–magnetosphere (ITM) system connects solar energy input to Earth's upper atmosphere through various processes.
