NOAA (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration)

NOAA (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration) is a government organization that provides weather forecasts, climate data, and environmental information. The site covers topics such as hurricane predictions, carbon dioxide levels, heat safety tips, satellite technology updates and visualizations of climate change. It has a high readability score and no significant biases or conflicts of interest.

100%

The overall score is a weighted number that takes into account conflict of interest, bias, deception and other practices that undermines the credibility of the source. It is calculated as:
Analysis.OverallConflictOfInterestScore * 0.3F + Analysis.OverallBiasScore * 0.3F + Analysis.DeceptivenessScore * 0.3F + Analysis.ReadabilityScore * 0.1F

A score that takes into consideration the content for flow, interruptions with ads, and overt search engine optimization techniques that makes the content hard to understand

    Record-Breaking CO2 Surge in 2024: Atmospheric Carbon Dioxide Levels Reach New Peak Amidst Extreme Weather Events

    Broke On: Friday, 07 June 2024 Carbon dioxide levels reached a new record high of 426.9 ppm in May 2024, marking the largest increase in NOAA's record despite plateauing fossil fuel emissions. This surge contributes to extreme weather events and ocean acidification, with 2023 and 2024 recording the hottest year and ocean temperatures on record respectively. NOAA Administrator Rick Spinrad emphasizes the importance of recognizing these signals and reducing fossil fuel use quickly.

    NOAA Predicts Active 2024 Atlantic Hurricane Season with 85% Probability

    Broke On: Thursday, 23 May 2024 NOAA predicts an active 2024 Atlantic hurricane season with 17-25 named storms, eight to thirteen hurricanes, and four to seven major hurricanes. Factors include warm ocean temperatures, La Nina conditions, reduced trade winds, and less wind shear. NOAA will use new tools for analysis and expand Spanish language products. Seven of the last ten seasons have been more active than normal due to climate change.
