Ocean Hottest Year

The Great Barrier Reef, one of Earth's most significant natural treasures, is currently experiencing its hottest sea surface temperatures in four centuries. According to a study published in Nature, the first quarter of 2024 recorded a temperature rise of 0.19°C above the previous peak. This extreme warming is directly linked to extensive coral bl...

Global heat records were "smashed" last year, the UN confirmed Tuesday, with 2023 rounding out the hottest decade on record, as heatwaves stalked oceans and glaciers suffered record ice loss.

The world's oceans were the hottest in recorded history in 2019, scientists said on Tuesday, as manmade emissions warmed seas at an ever-increasing rate with potentially disastrous impacts on Earth's climate.

This year is increasingly likely to be the planet's second- or third-warmest calendar year on record since modern temperature data collection began in 1880, according to data released this week by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.

Last month was the hottest June in modern history, marking the 14th consecutive month that global heat records have been broken, the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration said on Tuesday.

The year 2015 is shaping up to be the hottest on record, with the highest ocean surface temperatures ever measured, the UN's weather agency said today, ahead of a crucial climate change summit in Paris.

Last month was the hottest October in modern history and the first 10 months of the year have also set new records for worldwide warmth, US government scientists said Wednesday.

Both the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) calculated that in 2014 the world had its hottest year in 135 years of record-keeping. Earlier, the Japanese weather agency and an independent group out of University of California Berkeley also measured 2014 as the hottest on re...

The world is still heading for the hottest year on record although last month was only the seventh warmest November since 1880, the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) said on Monday.

Once again, the world hit record heat levels. The average global temperature last month tied the hottest April on record four years ago.

The month of November was the hottest since record-keeping began in 1880, the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration said today.
