Another study, which checked the data from the last 120 years, found that climate change has already reduced welfare by 29% and further temperature rise will bring this number to 47%. The temperature rise during the years 1960-2019 alone has already cut current GDP per capita by 18%. A rise by 1 degree in global temperature reduces global GDP ...
Measurements of infrared radiation pertaining to sea surface temperature have been collected since 1967. Satellite datasets show that over the past four decades the troposphere has warmed and the stratosphere has cooled. Both of these trends are consistent with the influence of increasing atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases.
The United States Social Security Administration announces it will lay off over 7,000 jobs to align with President Donald Trump's executive order, despite its workforce already being at a 50-year low. Disasters and accidents. 2024–25 South-West Indian Ocean cyclone season
Tonga has a tropical rainforest climate with a distinct warm period (December–April), during which the temperatures rise above 32 °C (89.6 °F), and a cooler period (May–November), with temperatures rarely rising above 27 °C (80.6 °F). The temperature and rainfall range from 23 °C (73.4 °F) and 1,700 mm (66.9 in) on Tongatapu in 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 ...

A global warming hiatus, [1] also sometimes referred to as a global warming pause [2] or a global warming slowdown, [3] is a period of relatively little change in globally averaged surface temperatures. [4] In the current episode of global warming many such 15-year periods appear in the surface temperature record, along with robust evidence of ...
The first daily weather forecasts were published in The Times in 1861. [16] In the following year a system was introduced of hoisting storm warning cones at the principal ports when a gale was expected. [18] The "Weather Book" which FitzRoy published in 1863 was far in advance of the scientific opinion of the time.
