  2. Human body temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_body_temperature

    t. e. Normal human body temperature (normothermia, euthermia) is the typical temperature range found in humans. The normal human body temperature range is typically stated as 36.5–37.5 °C (97.7–99.5 °F). [8][9] Human body temperature varies. It depends on sex, age, time of day, exertion level, health status (such as illness and ...

    The temperature in the years 2011-2020 was 1.09 °C higher than in 1859–1890. The temperature on land rose by 1.59 °C while over the ocean it rose by 0.88 °C. [ 3 ] In 2020 the temperature was 1.2 °C above the pre-industrial era. [ 4 ] In September 2023 the temperature was 1.75 °C above pre-industrial level and during the entire year of ...

  4. Geologic temperature record - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geologic_temperature_record

    During the PETM, the global mean temperature seems to have risen by as much as 5–8 °C (9–14 °F) to an average temperature as high as 23 °C (73 °F), in contrast to the global average temperature of today at just under 15 °C (60 °F). Geologists and paleontologists think that during much of the Paleocene and early Eocene, the poles were ...

  5. Human thermoregulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_thermoregulation

    Human thermoregulation. As in other mammals, human thermoregulation is an important aspect of homeostasis. In thermoregulation, body heat is generated mostly in the deep organs, especially the liver, brain, and heart, and in contraction of skeletal muscles. [ 1 ] Humans have been able to adapt to a great diversity of climates, including hot ...

    A study in 2020 estimated that the average global temperature during the warmest 200 year period of the HCO, around 6,500 years ago, was around 0.7 °C warmer than the mean for nineteenth century AD, immediately before the Industrial Revolution, and 0.3 °C cooler than the average for 2011-2019.

  8. Global surface temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_surface_temperature

    The global average and combined land and ocean surface temperature, show a warming of 1.09 °C (range: 0.95 to 1.20 °C) from 1850–1900 to 2011–2020, based on multiple independently produced datasets. [8]: 5 The trend is faster since the 1970s than in any other 50-year period over at least the last 2000 years. [8]: 8 .

    The third diagram, figure 7.1 (c), used a schematic (non-quantitative) curve to represent temperature variations over the last 1000 years. The vertical temperature scale was labelled as "Temperature change (°C)" but no numerical labels were given; it could be taken to imply that temperature variations of the MWP and LIA were each of the order ...
