Temperature anomalies for June 2010 - courtesy NOAA

In their monthly analysis just released of global land and ocean surface temperature data, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) reports that June 2010 was the hottest on record. The average combined land and ocean surface temperatures for the period from April to June was the warmest on record, and year-to-date (January to June) is the second warmest, behind 2007. The analysis from NOAA’s National Climatic Data Center is based on records dating back to 1880.

Data just released from NASA indicates that 2009 was the hottest year on record in the Southern Hemisphere, and globally comes in for a “three way tie” as the second-warmest year in the instrumental record (with 2007 and 1998), as Reto Ruedo, co-author of the NASA report, told Joe Romm of Climate Progress last week.

A new study suggest that ocean warming is accelerated by thinning clouds, and the thinning clouds is caused by warming oceans, thus setting up a positive feedback loop further accelerating climate change.

Studies from NASA, NOAA, and the National Snow and Ice Data Center show a record June for global sea surface temperatures, as well as continued deterioration of Arctic sea ice.
