NASA: Hottest 12 Months on Record Globally Thanks to Warm January
2015-02-18 14:26:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
ThinkProgress: In January, the planet continued the warming trend that made 2014 the hottest calendar year on record. NASA reports that last month was the second-hottest January on record (after 2007), while the Japan Meteorological Agency ranked it the hottest. Significantly, there has never been as hot a 12-month period in NASA`s database as the previous 12 months (February 2014January 2015). This is using a 12-month moving average, so we can "see the march of temperature change over time," rather than just...

Many factors made 2014 hottest year in California
2015-02-09 15:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Contra Costa Times: Many blame man-made global warming. Others say its more about the natural cyclical ocean currents, sea temperatures and wind patterns. Some wag the finger at urbanized humanity too many people, cars and concrete heating up inside nonporous asphalt jungles. Actually, the reasons for 2014 being Earths warmest year since 1880 when record-keeping began are all of the above, according to scientists and researchers. Explaining warmer temperatures can be complex. Unfortunately, the media...

Hottest year record ramps up climate pressure
2015-02-04 15:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
New Scientist: LAST year was the warmest on record, even though El Nio failed to show up. Most of the previous hottest years, such as 1998, have come with the warmer sea surfaces that El Nio brings. If there ever was a warming hiatus, it is over. The long-term trend continues. The world is warming by 0.16 °C per decade. The effects are evident: record heatwaves, as in Australia, and record floods - and snow - in many places, with Mozambique and the US the latest to feel the effects. Sea level is rising...

UN ranks 2014 as hottest year on record
2015-02-03 12:34:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Blue and Green: The UNs World Meteorological Organisation (WMO) has ranked 2014 as the hottest year on record and noted that 14 of the 15 warmest years have now occurred in this century, demonstrating the continuing warming trend. Average global air temperatures over land and sea surface were 0.57C above the long-term average of 14C. However, the organisation noted that the difference in temperature between the three warmest years, 2014, 2010 and 2005, is only a few hundredths of a degree, less than the margin...

Global Warming Trend to Continue After 2014 Marked Hottest Year Record
2015-02-02 13:58:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Sputnik: Last year, the hottest since records began, has kept the heat on growing concerns over climate change, and scientists now predict that global temperatures will continue to rise, the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) said in a statement Monday. "We expect global warming to continue, given that rising levels of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere and the increasing heat content of the oceans are committing us to a warmer future,' WMO Secretary-General Michel Jarraud, was quoted as saying in...
