There is good agreement on the overall evolution of global temperatures and year-to-year variability. Dataset anomalies are calculated relative to a 1981 to 2010 baseline and offset by 0.69°C, which is the best estimate difference for that period from the 1850-1900 average given in the IPCC sixth assessment report."
Hockey stick graphs present the global or hemispherical mean temperature record of the past 500 to 2000 years as shown by quantitative climate reconstructions based on climate proxy records. These reconstructions have consistently shown a slow long term cooling trend changing into relatively rapid warming in the 20th century, with the ...
English: Warming stripes graphic comparing different datasets of Global Mean Surface Temperature (GMST). General concept of warming stripes was developed by Ed Hawkins (climatologist) Five data sources for five datasets are listed at File:20200324 Global average temperature - NASA-GISS HadCrut NOAA Japan BerkeleyE.svg
Since 1979 the Stratospheric sounding units (SSUs) on the NOAA operational satellites have provided near global stratospheric temperature data above the lower stratosphere. The SSU is a far-infrared spectrometer employing a pressure modulation technique to make measurement in three channels in the 15 μm carbon dioxide absorption band. The ...
The world is on track for a “catastrophic” 3.1 degrees Celsius (5.6 degrees Fahrenheit) of global warming over preindustrial levels, according to the United Nations.. The international ...
[28]: 322 At that time, mean global temperatures were about 2–4 °C (3.6–7.2 °F) warmer than pre-industrial temperatures. The global mean sea level was up to 25 metres (82 ft) higher than it is today. [29]: 323 The modern observed rise in temperature and CO 2 concentrations has been rapid. Even abrupt geophysical events in Earth's history ...
Recurring bleaching events are upending earlier scientific models that forecast that between 70% and 90% of the world's coral reefs could be lost when global warming reached 1.5 degrees Celsius (2 ...
The results are thus not precisely comparable to surface temperature records or models. Pre-1998 results published by UAH showed no warming of the atmosphere. In a 1998 paper, Wentz and Schabel showed this (along with other discrepancies) was due to the orbital decay of the NOAA satellites. [ 12 ]
