Global oceans are approaching record-high temperatures, prompting warnings from Copernicus about the potential return of El Niño, which could make 2027 the hottest year on record. This development is raising concerns about extreme heat waves and prompting preparations for its impact in various regions.
A massive stranding of dead shrimp has occurred off the coast of Oman, creating a pink patch visible from space. The event was recorded by a Copernicus program satellite.
The probability of the planet warming due to El Niño this summer has increased to 60%. According to Copernicus service forecasts, seasonal average temperatures in Europe will exceed the climatological average.
The European agency Copernicus C3S reported that March 2026 was the second warmest March in Europe since measurements began. This summary of global temperature data highlights significant climate trends.
Praėjęs mėnuo Europoje buvo antras šilčiausias kovas nuo stebėjimų pradžios, skelbia ES klimato kaitos tarnyba „Copernicus“. Pasaulio mastu tai buvo ketvirtas šilčiausias kovo mėnuo.
According to the EU's Copernicus service, March was the second warmest on record in Europe, nearly 2.3 degrees above the reference value. This indicates increasing pressure on the climate system.
Observatorul european Copernicus a avertizat joi că un episod semnificativ de poluare a aerului cu particule fine este aşteptat în următoarele zile în anumite părţi ale Europei de Vest, transmite…
According to data from the European Union's Copernicus Climate Change Service, April 2026 has been recorded as the third warmest April ever globally. The report highlights the continuing trend of rising average surface air temperatures.
A recent report indicates that nearly all of Europe experienced above-average heat last year, with climate records toppling across the continent. Europe is now identified as the fastest-warming continent globally, facing increased extreme weather events.
March 2026 was the second warmest March ever recorded in Europe and the fourth warmest globally, according to the Copernicus Climate Change Service, raising new concerns about accelerating climate change.
Global temperatures in March were near records, with oceans reaching near-record highs, according to the European observatory Copernicus. This contributes to a sustained global average monthly temperature rise, fueling drought conditions in the US and hinting at a potential return of the natural warming phenomenon El Niño.
Ocean surface temperatures are on track to surpass all previous extreme years, potentially favoring an El Niño event and a hot summer, with Europe experiencing its second-warmest March on record.
The Times of India featured a quote from astronomer Nicolaus Copernicus: "To know that we know what we know, and to know that we do not know what we do not know, that is true knowledge."
Despite cold temperatures in Europe, the global average temperature for February was elevated by other continents, making it the fifth warmest February ever recorded by the EU's climate service.
Researchers from the EU's Copernicus program report that April was the third warmest since measurements began, with sea surface temperatures reaching the second highest on record.
A new report by Copernicus and the World Meteorological Organization reveals that Europe is warming at twice the global average, making it the fastest-warming continent. The report details severe consequences, including marine heatwaves and melting glaciers.
March was recorded as the second warmest on record globally, with the EU's global warming monitor also reporting the second-highest global sea surface temperature. The El Niño climate phenomenon is strengthening, with global oceans reaching near-record heat levels, and a shift towards El Niño conditions is likely, signaling significant impacts on global weather patterns.
The Copernicus program reports that the world experienced its fourth warmest March on record, with Europe seeing its second warmest. Sea surface temperatures are returning to record levels, indicating a potential 'Super El Niño' that could intensify global weather events.
Ocean surface waters are nearing new heat records, with average temperatures now exceeding 21°C. Data from the European Copernicus program indicates these temperatures are nearly 0.5°C warmer than the average recorded between 1993 and 2022.
On this day in 1616, Nicolaus Copernicus’ book on the heliocentric theory was banned by the then dominant Church. Here is a quiz on other ‘heretics’ who changed the world
