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 ...
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 hottest average temperature on Earth is at Dallol, Ethiopia, which averages a temperature of 33.9 °C (93.0 °F) throughout the year. [5] The hottest temperature recorded within Africa, which was also the world record, was 57.8 °C (136.0 °F) at 'Aziziya, Libya, on 13 September 1922. This was later proven to be false, being derived from an ...
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.
A lack of warming then seen in the UAH retrieval trends 1978-1998 was noted by Christy and Spencer [32] and commented on in a 2000 report by the National Research Council [33] [34] and the 2001 IPCC Third Assessment Report [35] Christy et al. (2007) claimed that tropical temperature trends from radiosondes matches closest with his v5.2 UAH ...

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 people along the lake earn their living through fishing. They catch usipa, batala, utaka, bombe among others. Very few of the populace are in wage employment at Chombe and Vizara where tea and rubber are cultivated. Most of the times, 80% of the male active population goes to work in other countries such as Tanzania and South Africa.
