Temperature rise may soon accelerate even more

The April 2024 temperature was 1.32°C higher than 1951-1980, as illustrated by the above image, created with NASA content. Local anomalies are as high as 6.2°C. The April 2024 temperature was 1.62°C higher than 1900-1930, as illustrated by the above image, created with NASA content. The red line highlights acceleration of the temperature rise (Lowess Smoothing).  The…

North Atlantic heating up

Sea surface temperature at record high The image below, created with Climate Reanalyzer screenshots, shows that the sea surface temperature (SST 60°S – 60°N mean) was 21.2°C on April 24, 2024, reaching yet another record high. These record high sea surface temperatures are reached as long-term sea surface temperatures are falling and as El Niño…

Potential temperature trends

[ click on images to enlarge ] The above image shows potential temperature trends. Four of the trends are global ones and one trend is based on Arctic (64°North-90°North) data: The red line is a polynomial trend based on 15 years of Arctic data (2009-2023). The green line is a linear trend based on 1880-2023…

Arctic sea ice July 2023

World temperatures during each of the past 16 days have been higher than they have been for millions of years. Moreover, the temperature is now rising faster than during any period before, and could rise 18.44°C (versus pre-industrial) by the year 2026. In each of the past 16 days, the temperature has been higher than the peak temperature…
