The lowest air temperature record, the lowest reliably measured temperature on Antarctica was set on 21 July 1983, when a temperature of −89.2 °C (−128.6 °F) was observed at Vostok Station. [ 2 ] [ 5 ] For comparison, this is 10.7 °C (19.3 °F) colder than subliming dry ice (at sea level pressure).
Global surface temperature ... The following chart is from ... Temperature estimates over 800,000 years of the EPICA ice cores in Antarctica. Temperatures are in ...
The 2024 Antarctica heat wave refers to a prolonged and significant mid-winter increase in Antarctic temperatures compared to prior winters, causing several regions of Antarctica to reach temperatures 10 °C (18.0 °F) above normal in July 2024, up to a 28 °C (50.4 °F) increase above average. The heat wave was significant for occurring during ...
According to the World Meteorological Organization in Geneva, the new record high temperature on continental Antarctica is a downright pleasant 63.5 degrees Fahrenheit (17.5 degrees Celsius). The ...
The latest data shows high temperatures in portions of East Antarctica – where the most abnormal conditions are ongoing – that are typically between minus 58 and minus 76 degrees Fahrenheit ...
After the climate optimum, a distinct climate cooling, which lasted until historic times, occurred. [26] [27] [30] [31] The Antarctic Peninsula is a part of the world that is experiencing extraordinary warming. [32] Each decade for the last five, average temperatures in the Antarctic Peninsula have risen by 0.5 °C (0.90 °F). [33]
With an average temperature of −55.2 °C (−67.4 °F), Vostok, Antarctica is the coldest place in the world, and has also recorded the lowest temperature, −89.2 °C (−128.6 °F). [3] The following chart indicates the average and record temperatures in this research station through a year:
The UN weather agency said Friday that an Argentine research base on the northern tip of Antarctica is reporting a temperature that could be a record high. A base in Antarctica recorded a ...
