  2. Sea surface temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sea_surface_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 ...

  3. Ocean temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ocean_temperature

    Deep ocean water is the name for cold, salty water found deep below the surface of Earth's oceans. Deep ocean water makes up about 90% of the volume of the oceans. Deep ocean water has a very uniform temperature of around 0-3 °C. Its salinity is about 3.5% or 35 ppt (parts per thousand). [3]

    The Pacific Ocean is the largest and deepest of Earth's five oceanic ... the most recent three-month sea surface temperature average for the area approximately ...

    As a result, ocean surf temperatures are much colder along the Pacific coast than the Atlantic coast. For example, the average July SST (sea surface temperature) at New York City at 40.7°N is 73 °F (23 °C), while at the same latitude in Eureka, CA is 57 °F (14 °C). As such, ocean surf temperatures are rarely above 70 °F (21 °C) during ...

  6. Global surface temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_surface_temperature

    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 ...

  7. Oceanic climate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oceanic_climate

    Regions where oceanic or subtropical highland climates (Cfb, Cfc, Cwb, Cwc) are found. An oceanic climate, also known as a marine climate or maritime climate, is the temperate climate sub-type in Köppen classification represented as Cfb, typical of west coasts in higher middle latitudes of continents, generally featuring cool to warm summers and cool to mild winters (for their latitude), with ...

  8. El Niño–Southern Oscillation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/El_Niño–Southern...

    On average, the temperature of the ocean surface in the tropical East Pacific is roughly 8–10 °C (14–18 °F) cooler than in the tropical West Pacific. The sea surface temperature (SST) of the West Pacific northeast of Australia averages around 28–30 °C (82–86 °F).

  9. 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.
