Scientists just recorded the highest sea surface temperature ever. 🌊🌡️
In this episode of Earthshift, Eva Cornman explains how @CopernicusECMWF clocked a global average of 21.1°C (70°F), beating the previous single-day record of 21.09°C set in 2024. It’s especially alarming because sea surface temps usually peak in March and April, not August. Warmer oceans absorb less CO2, which can fuel more extreme weather, and scientists suspect a developing super El Niño may be part of what’s driving it.

Among the world’s largest science centers and New England’s most attended cultural institution, the Museum of Science reaches over 300 million people a year — at Science Park and in museums around the world, in classrooms, and online. Established in 1830, the Museum is home to such iconic experiences as the Theater of Electricity, the Charles Hayden Planetarium, and the Mugar Omni Theater. The Museum influences formal and informal STEM education through research and national advocacy, including through its Youth Exploring Science (YES) program through the William and Charlotte Bloomberg Science Education Center. Around the world, the Museum is known for digital experiences such as Mission: Mars on Roblox and traveling exhibitions such as Science Behind Pixar. The Public Science Common, a state-of-the-art programming and event space featuring sweeping 270-degree views of Boston and Cambridge, and is a space to bring together people for a wide variety of programs and events.

What amount of data is considered statistically relevant?
Hold up.. so like.. hold up so some information for florida people and canada
Canada: expect a 2027 wildfire risk and a bunch of horrible wheather like possibly worst most countries
Florida: Good news the wheater should not be horrible there is gonna be a tornado around davenport and Kissimmee
Bad news: There is gonna be a flood but not crazy high expect many hurricanes and heatwaves tpsicne florida is the heat state of USA
News: The heatwave is coming around Mexico next stop is probably California and Francisco so everyone get ready and get to high places! Everyone try to stay safe please!
La Nina didn't get to stay around long enough to cool anything off. I don't get why so many people think climate change is a hoax. These folks need a while for some quiet reflection with a pencil and paper at the kitchen table to write down the weather they have observed over their lifetimes. Oh baby yes, she be a changin’. To think that 8 billion organisms living on this planet has had no effect on ecosystems and weather is crazy.
when did scientists start measuring sea surface levels?
We're cooked (literally)
21.1 vs 21.09 C. Ok got it
Uh oh
Soon the name will be changed to The Kid instead of El nino
So what? Won’t stop anyone from driving to work, or driving on vacation. Or eating beef. Or running their AC or heat.
So what? About 60 years of data? What about the previous 12 billion years?
The Sun is directly responsible.
Thank you.
Well when you dump nuclear waist in the ocean what do you expect
I love it! What a great news 🗞️😁 for Monday! Yaaay
No planet b
