UN News, July 7, according to a new report, the world has just experienced the hottest June on record, sea surface temperatures are unprecedentedly high, and Antarctic sea ice extent is at a record low.
The report by the European Union’s Copernicus Climate Change Service, which works closely with the World Meteorological Organization, shows that human-induced climate change has widespread impacts on the Earth system. June 2023 was just over 0.5°C above the 1991-2020 average, breaking the previous record set in June 2019. The report also said sea surface temperatures in the North Atlantic “exceeded expectations.”
High temperatures persist until July, usually the hottest month of the year. According to preliminary data, the global average temperature above two meters above the surface reached its highest point on record at 16.88°C on July 3, breaking the daily record of 16.80°C set in August 2016. After that, the temperature broke the record again on July 4, reaching 17.03°C.
Antarctic sea ice extent reached its lowest level in June since satellite observations began, and was 17% below average, sharply breaking the previous June record. Throughout the month, the daily extent of Antarctic sea ice remained at an all-time low and well below values for this time of year. Arctic sea ice extent was slightly below average but well above the June values for the past eight years.
