Record sea temperature and its impact on the global climate

The Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S) reported that the average global sea surface temperature reached 21.1 degrees Celsius this past Saturday. This figure establishes a new record, surpassing the previous high of 21.09 degrees recorded in March 2024.

As the official monitoring system for the European climate program, C3S identified this shift as a notable development in global climate trends. The data highlights ongoing changes in marine temperatures and their broader implications for the global climate system.
