The year 2025 has also begun with warmer-than-average temperatures. On Wednesday afternoon, much of the area south of the Yangtze River experienced temperatures exceeding 15 C, which is far from the biting cold typically expected during winter. A cold front for the whole country was forecast fr...
The 2015 Paris Agreement commits countries to limit the global average temperature rise to well below 2°C above pre-industrial levels, and to aim for 1.5°C.2015年达成的《巴黎协定》中，各国政府承诺将全球平均温度控制在比前工业化水平升温2摄氏度以内，并努力达到升温1.5摄氏度以内的目标。Scientist...
Global warming is the rise in average temperatures across the globe, which has been ongoing at least since record keeping began in 1880. Here are the bare numbers, according to theNational Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA): Between 1880 and 1980, the global annual temperature increased...
January marked the first time on record that global average temperatures reached the 1.5 degree warming threshold over a 12-month period. February surpassing those milestones does not mean the world as a whole has surpassed the threshold, but it does indicate that human activities a...
According to the latest report released by the World Meteorological Organization on the 2nd, the temperature in Europe has risen more than twice the global average in the past 30 years. As the warming trend continues, abnormal high temperatures, wildfires, floods and other climate change factors ...
absolute temperatures; instead, it shows how much warmer or cooler each region of Earth was compared to the average from 1951 to 1980. The bar chart below shows 2022 in context with temperature anomalies since 1880. The values represent surface temperatures averaged over the entire globe for the...
To first test the utility of the MAT–CIA equation in modern times, we derive a global-average CIA by substituting global mean surface air temperature (GSAT, 14 °C)44 into this equation. The resulting CIA (73.5) is consistent with previous global-average estimates (71.6–75.5)15,17,45...
NASA's Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment show Greenland lost an average of 286 billion tons of ice per year between 1993 and 2016, while Antarctica lost about 127 billion tons of ice per year during the same time period. The rate of Antarctica ...
For many environmentalists, the world seems to be getting warmer. As the nearest country of South Polar Region, New Zealand has maintained an upward trend in its average temperature in the past few years, However, the temperature in New Zealand will go up 4℃ in the next century while the...
The recent levelling of global mean temperatures after the late 1990s, the so-called global warming hiatus or slowdown, ignited a surge of scientific interest into natural global mean surface temperature variability, observed temperature biases, and clim
