February 2024 saw the highest average sea surface temperatures worldwide ever recorded, at 69.91 F, surpassing the previous record set in August 2023 of 69.76 F, according to Copernicus data.

In July, global sea surface temperatures were at 1.78 degrees Fahrenheit above average. The time-lapse video, shared by the NASA Earth Observatory, shows how the sea has warmed up since April 1, 2023.

A new study from the University of Reading in the UK has revealed that sea surface temperatures are rising at a rate of 0.27 °C per decade, compared to just 0.06 °C in the 1980s.

In 2008, for example, researchers found that a 0.3-degree Celsius jump in sea surface temperatures in 1945 was the result of measurements taken from engine room intakes.
