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.
Kombat (the place of the giraffe [citation needed]) is a mine and its associated settlement at the southern margin of the Otavi Mountain Range in northern Namibia. It is situated 37 kilometres (23 mi) East of Otavi on the B8 to Grootfontein. [1] Kombat at its peak had over 1,000 inhabitants.
The average temperature of the coldest month must not be colder than −3–0 °C (27–32 °F), or the climate will be classified as continental. [9] [12] The average temperature variations in the year are between 10–15 °C (50–59 °F), with average annual temperatures between 6–13 °C (43–55 °F).

Projected global surface temperature changes relative to 1850–1900, based on CMIP6 multi-model mean changes. The IPCC Sixth Assessment Report defines global mean surface temperature (GMST) as the "estimated global average of near-surface air temperatures over land and sea ice, and sea surface temperature (SST) over ice-free ocean regions, with changes normally expressed as departures from a ...
The ocean skin temperature is defined as the temperature of the water at 20 μm depth. This means that the SST skin is very dependent on the heat flux from the ocean to the atmosphere. This results in diurnal warming of the sea surface, high temperatures occur during the day and low temperatures during the night (especially with clear skies and ...
Elefantenberg south of Otavi next to the B1 (2014) Otavi is a railway junction where the line from Windhoek to Oshikango branches off the line to Grootfontein. The town is served by the Otavi railway station. Otavi is situated next to the B1 - the longest National Road, running the length of Namibia - about 370 km from the capital, Windhoek.
The problem entails finding such a place in the world ocean where, if a person fell overboard while on a ship at sea, they would be as far away from any land in any direction as possible. It lies in the South Pacific Ocean , and is equally distant from the three closest land vertices which are each roughly 2,688 km (1,670 mi) away.
