Global sea surface temperature anomalies, 21st August 2023. This image shows the sea surface temperature anomalies on 21st August 2023 compared to the 2003-2014 average for that day. Areas that are hotter than normal are red, those that are cooler are blue. The four months up to August had set records for sea surface temperatures and this trend continued into August. This warming is thought to be driven by the El Nino weather phenomenon and human-induced climate change. Data from the Multiscale Ultrahigh Resolution Sea Surface Temperature (MUR SST) project. | |
