The Campaign

Oceans Melting Greenland (OMG) was a multi-year NASA campaign aimed to study the extent of the warm ocean waters melting glaciers in Greenland by observing yearly changes in ocean temperature and glacier extent and height. OMG consisted of several deployments during boreal spring, summer, and fall from 2015 to 2021 across Greenland. Airborne and shipborne sensors were to conduct bathymetry mapping and measure oceanic properties such as salinity and temperature. OMG was one of NASA's EVS-2 campaigns.
