In 2023, astonishing new records were set in 2 m surface temperature, sea surface temperature (SST), and global sea ice extent

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: "In 2023, astonishing new records were set in 2 m surface temperature, sea surface temperature (SST), and global sea ice extent (2 m Temperature World, and SST World after Climate Reanalyzer, Climate Change Institute, University of Maine, https://climatereanalyzer.org/; Global Sea Ice Extent after https://zacklabe.com/global-sea-ice-extent-conc/)."

"Over 80% of the global population experienced climate change-driven heat in the month of July (59) (Fig. 2). It featured 7 consecutive months of record-shattering global temperature driven by a combination of a moderately strong El Niño and a decrease of Earth's albedo (equivalent to an increase of atmospheric CO2 from 420 to 530 ppm) (60). Extreme heatwaves swept many parts of the world. Sea surface temperatures leapt to record highs. Antarctic sea ice was far below average. Record wildfires burned for months destroying tens of millions of acres and produced continental-scale public health crises in air quality, and tens of thousands of temperature records around the world were broken. Without human-induced climate change these events would have been extremely rare (61)."
