change. New maps of artificial light reveal a planet that has been reshaping its nights through patterns of brightening and dimming.<\/p>\n<p>The maps are based on a recent analysis of NASA\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.earthdata.nasa.gov\/data\/projects\/black-marble\" rel=\"noopener\">Black Marble<\/a> data, which found that instead of a gradual increase in artificial light at night over the course of nearly a decade, the patterns are much more nuanced. The analysis portrays a world flickering with industrial booms and busts, construction, and blackouts, as well as more gradual shifts, such as policy-driven retrofits.<\/p>\n<p>NASA\u2019s Black Marble product uses observations from the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.earthdata.nasa.gov\/data\/instruments\/viirs\" rel=\"noopener\">VIIRS<\/a> (Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite) sensors on the <a href=\"https:\/\/science.nasa.gov\/mission\/suomi-npp\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Suomi-NPP<\/a>, NOAA-20, and NOAA-21 satellites to produce records of nighttime lights at daily, monthly, and yearly time scales. The VIIRS <a href=\"https:\/\/www.earthdata.nasa.gov\/news\/blog\/announcing-viirs-nighttime-imagery-day-night-band\" rel=\"noopener\">day-night band<\/a>\u00a0detects nighttime light in a range of wavelengths from green to near-infrared and uses filtering techniques to observe signals such as city lights, reflected moonlight, and auroras.<\/p>\n<p>The map above shows changes in brightness across most of the inhabited world (between 60 degrees south and 70 degrees north). Yellow and gold areas are where there has been more brightening during the study period, from 2014 to 2022, and purple areas are where there has been more dimming. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The visualization below shows the same data for the Eastern Hemisphere.

Such \u201cbidirectional changes\u201d often happen side by side. In the U.S., for example, West Coast cities grew brighter as their populations increased, while much of the East Coast showed dimming, which the team attributed to the increased use of energy-efficient LEDs and broader economic restructuring.<\/p>\n<p>The authors concluded that internationally, nighttime light surged in China and northern India along with urban development, while LEDs and energy conservation measures coincided with reduced light pollution in Paris and throughout France (a 33 percent dimming), the UK (22 percent dimming), and the Netherlands (21 percent dimming). European nights dimmed sharply in 2022 during a regional energy crisis that followed the outbreak of the Russia-Ukraine conflict.<\/p>\n<p>Large versions of the maps on this page can be downloaded below.
