Global Temperature Change
WorldPhysical EnvironmentThe changing global surface temperature in degrees Fahrenheit since 1880 (when a reasonably global distribution of meteorological stations was established).
NASAGlobal temperature anomalies in degrees Celsius, with warmer regions in areas like the Arctic, parts of North America, Europe, and Asia and cooler regions in parts of the Southern Ocean and some equatorial regions.
Canada and parts of the North Pacific Ocean, South Pacific Ocean, a small part of the North Atlantic Ocean, a small part of the South Atlantic Ocean, the Southern Ocean, and areas around the Antarctic Circle and north of the Indian Ocean show significant cooling (brown), with anomalies ranging from negative 0.82 degrees Celsius to negative 0.51 degrees Celsius. The United States, India, Sri Lanka, Sudan, Niger, Ethiopia, Nepal, Zimbabwe, small regions in northeast Japan and southeast of Japan, and a small area southeast of Guam exhibit a mix of slight cooling and warming (yellow to orange), with anomalies from negative 0.2 degrees Celsius to 0.49 degrees Celsius. Additionally, most of the ocean areas show temperatures ranging from negative 0.2 degrees Celsius to 0.49 degrees Celsius. Most of South America, along with some African countries such as Senegal, Nigeria, Gabon, Angola, and South Africa, and countries in Northern Africa like Algeria, as well as Kenya, and the extreme northern part of Africa, display anomalies from negative 0.5 degrees Celsius to 0.99 degrees Celsius (purple). Eastern countries including Indonesia, Vietnam, China, Japan, Guam, Papua New Guinea, Australia, and New Zealand also show similar anomalies. Northern countries such as Mongolia, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, and some southern parts of Russia, regions around Iceland, and parts of Southern Asia also fall within this temperature range. Most of Western Europe, along with most parts of Russia (except the southern part), and some regions in the North Pacific Ocean and North Atlantic Ocean are experiencing temperature anomalies from 1 degrees Celsius to 1.99 degrees Celsius (blue). The northern region above Russia is experiencing significant warming with anomalies ranging from 2 degrees Celsius to 3.32 degrees Celsius (red). The temperature range of negative 0.82 degrees Celsius to negative 0.51 degrees Celsius is also observed in the Southern Pacific Ocean.
