The warmest soil temperature estimated by the Viking Orbiter was 27 °C (300 K; 81 °F). [27] The Spirit rover recorded a maximum daytime air temperature in the shade of 35 °C (308 K; 95 °F), and regularly recorded temperatures well above 0 °C (273 K; 32 °F), except in winter. [28]
The geologic temperature record are changes in Earth's environment as determined from geologic evidence on multi-million to billion (10 9) year time scales. The study of past temperatures provides an important paleoenvironmental insight because it is a component of the climate and oceanography of the time.
The warmest day on record for the entire planet was 22 July 2024 when the highest global average temperature was recorded at 17.16 °C (62.89 °F). [20] The previous record was 17.09 °C (62.76 °F) set the day before on 21 July 2024. [20] The month of July 2023 was the hottest month on record globally. [21]
Last year was the planet’s hottest in recorded history, NASA announced, marking two years in a row that global temperatures have shattered records. ... (1.47 degrees Celsius) hotter than the ...
Temperatures often top 49 °C (120 °F) at Death Valley during the summer months. [2] The standard measuring conditions for temperature are in the air, 1.5 metres (4 ft 11 in) above the ground, and shielded from direct sunlight. [3] Global surface temperatures as a whole have been monitored since the 1880s when record keeping began. [4]
Before last year, the previous recorded hottest day was in 2016, when average temperatures were at 16.8 degrees Celsius (62.24 degrees Fahrenheit). July is generally the hottest month for the ...
The Earth experienced the fifth warmest year in recorded history in 2022, adding to a streak in which the last eight years have been the hottest on record thanks to climate change caused by the ...
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 ...
