  2. Global surface temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_surface_temperature

    The red line shows direct surface temperature measurements since 1880. [ 2] Global surface temperature (GST) is the average temperature of Earth 's surface. It is determined nowadays by measuring the temperatures over the ocean and land, and then calculating a weighted average. The temperature over the ocean is called the sea surface temperature.

  3. Danger zone (food safety) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Danger_zone_(food_safety)

    v. t. e. The danger zone is the temperature range in which food-borne bacteria can grow. Food safety agencies, such as the United States' Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS), define the danger zone as roughly 40 to 140 °F (4 to 60 °C). [ 1][ 2][ 3] The FSIS stipulates that potentially hazardous food should not be stored at temperatures ...

  4. Sea surface temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sea_surface_temperature

    Sea surface temperature (SST), or ocean surface temperature, is the water temperature close to the ocean 's surface. The exact meaning of surface varies according to the measurement method used, but it is between 1 millimetre (0.04 in) and 20 metres (70 ft) below the sea surface. For comparison, the sea surface skin temperature relates to the ...

  5. Ocean temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ocean_temperature

    Sea surface temperature (or ocean surface temperature) is the temperature of ocean water close to the surface. The exact meaning of surface varies in the literature and in practice. It is usually between 1 millimetre (0.04 in) and 20 metres (70 ft) below the sea surface. Sea surface temperatures greatly modify air masses in the Earth's ...

  6. Low-temperature cooking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low-temperature_cooking

    Low-temperature cooking is a cooking technique that uses temperatures in the range of about 60 to 90 °C (140 to 194 °F) [1] for a prolonged time to cook food. Low-temperature cooking methods include sous vide cooking, slow cooking using a slow cooker, cooking in a normal oven which has a minimal setting of about 70 °C (158 °F), and using a combi steamer providing exact temperature control.

  7. Temperature measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temperature_measurement

    Temperature measurement. A medical/clinical thermometer showing the temperature of 38.7 °C (101.7 °F) Temperature measurement (also known as thermometry) describes the process of measuring a current temperature for immediate or later evaluation. Datasets consisting of repeated standardized measurements can be used to assess temperature trends.

  8. Effects of climate change on oceans - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Effects_of_climate_change...

    Land surface temperatures have increased faster than ocean temperatures as the ocean absorbs about 92% of excess heat generated by climate change. [10] Chart with data from NASA [11] showing how land and sea surface air temperatures have changed vs a pre-industrial baseline.

    The following table lists the highest and lowest temperatures recorded in the 50 U.S. states, the District of Columbia, and the 5 inhabited U.S. territories during the past two centuries, in both Fahrenheit and Celsius. [ 1] If two dates have the same temperature record (e.g. record low of 40 °F or 4.4 °C in 1911 in Aibonito and 1966 in San ...
