  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. List of weather records - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_weather_records

    The highest natural ground surface temperature ever recorded may have been an alleged reading of 93.9 °C (201.0 °F) at Furnace Creek, California, United States, on 15 July 1972. [ 7] In 2011, a ground temperature of 84 °C (183.2 °F) was recorded in Port Sudan, Sudan. [ 8] The theoretical maximum possible ground surface temperature has been ...

  4. Temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temperature

    It was called a centigrade scale because of the 100-degree interval. [3] Since the standardization of the kelvin in the International System of Units, it has subsequently been redefined in terms of the equivalent fixing points on the Kelvin scale, so that a temperature increment of one degree Celsius is the same as an increment of one kelvin ...

  5. Celsius - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Celsius

    The degree Celsius (symbol: °C) can refer to a specific point on the Celsius temperature scale or to a difference or range between two temperatures. It is named after the Swedish astronomer Anders Celsius (1701–1744), who proposed the first version of it in 1742. The unit was called centigrade in several languages (from the Latin centum ...

  6. Lowest temperature recorded on Earth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lowest_temperature...

    The Low Temperature Laboratory recorded a record low temperature of 100 pK, or 1.0 × 10 −10 K in 1999. [11] The current apparatus for achieving low temperatures has two stages. The first utilizes a helium dilution refrigerator to get to temperatures of millikelvins, then the next stage uses adiabatic nuclear demagnetisation to reach ...

  7. List of cities by average temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_cities_by_average...

    This is a list of cities by average temperature (monthly and yearly). The temperatures listed are averages of the daily highs and lows. Thus, the actual daytime temperature in a given month may be considerably higher than the temperature listed here, depending on how large the difference between daily highs and lows is.

  8. Highest temperature recorded on Earth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Highest_temperature...

    The current official highest registered air temperature on Earth is 56.7 °C (134.1 °F), recorded on 10 July 1913 at Furnace Creek Ranch, in Death Valley in the United States. [ 1] For few years, a former record that was measured in Libya had been in place, until it was decertified in 2012 based on evidence that it was an erroneous reading.

  9. Geothermal gradient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geothermal_gradient

    Geothermal gradient is the rate of change in temperature with respect to increasing depth in Earth 's interior. As a general rule, the crust temperature rises with depth due to the heat flow from the much hotter mantle; away from tectonic plate boundaries, temperature rises in about 25–30 °C/km (72–87 °F/mi) of depth near the surface in ...
