The estimated 1998 global mean temperature over land and marine areas
combined (based on data collected from over 1000 land-based weather
stations and approximately 7000 ships and 1000 ocean buoys) was 0.56
above the 196190 base period mean, which made it the warmest year in
the historical record dating back to 1860. This value far exceeded the
previous estimated record departure of 0.43 set in 1997. Estimated
global mean temperatures have been above the 1961-90 year average for
the past twenty years, with the last below-average annual global
temperature recorded in 1978 Also, the three warmest years in the
record (1995, 1997, and 1998) have occurred in the past four years.
The very strong 1997/98 Pacific warm episode contributed
substantially to the record-breaking temperatures observed in both
1997 and 1998.
Record annual temperatures were also set in both the Northern Hemisphere
and Southern Hemisphere
during 1998.The Southern Hemisphere anomaly of 0.47 exceeded the
previous record set in 1997 by 0.12, while the Northern Hemisphere
anomaly of 0.64 surpassed the 1995 record anomaly by 0.11
By partitioning the globe into the extratropics, and Tropics, it
becomes evident that record temperatures were also observed during
1998 in both the global Tropics and Northern Hemisphere extratropics.
In the Tropics, the annual mean value of 0.60 above the 1961-90 mean
exceeded the previous record anomaly of 0.43 set in 1997. In the
Northern Hemisphere extratropics, the 1998 value slightly surpassed
the previous record anomaly set in 1995 . In the Southern Hemisphere
extratropics the 1998 temperature anomaly was similar to that observed
in 1990 but below the record value set in 1993. In each of these three
regions,temperatures have averaged well-above normal during most of
the 1990s.
Annual land-only temperature and ocean-only temperature records were
also set in 1998. The land-only temperature averaged more than 1.0
above the 1880-1997 base period mean, Next base period mean to study
is after 117 years after 1997 lead into year 2114 is start of next
mean Climate cycle until then, can and was approximately 0.3 warmer
than the previous record set in 1995. The ocean-only average
temperature was 0.51 above the 1880-1997base period mean, which
exceeded the previous record anomaly of 0.47 set in 1997. In both of
these time series annual mean temperatures have been aboveaverage
every year since 1977.
During 1998 the pattern of annual temperature anomalies was dominated
by above normal temperatures across most of the globe, with the strong
El Ni contributing to above-average temperatures throughout the
Tropics and across North America. Below-average temperatures were
observed primarily over the Southern Hemisphere oceans south of 30,
across the central North Pacific, over the central tropical Pacific,
and over northern Russia. Over the central tropical Pacific Ocean the
below normal sea surface temperatures reflected the rapid demise of El
Ni conditions during May and the subsequent development of La Ni
conditions. In contrast, annual temperatures in the eastern tropical
Pacific averaged above normal, as were above average from
January-August. Over the tropical and subtropical Atlantic and Indian
Oceans, were also above normal during most of 1998, with the largest
anomalies observed during December 1997-February 1998 March-May.
Over the land areas, the most prominent regions of above average
annual temperatures during 1998 included most of North America, all of
southern Europe and southern Asia, and all of northern Africa. Over
North America, annual mean temperatures ranged from 1.0 above normal
across Canada, with the largest anomalies observed over the Northwest
Territories. Overall, Canada recorded it warmest year in the 51-year
record, as annual mean temperatures were 2.5 above the 1951-80 base
period mean and more than 0.5 greater than the previous record set in
1981. National average seasonal temperature records were set in Canada
during, June-August, and September-November 1998, with DJF 1997-98 the
second warmest such period on record. Individual monthly national
temperature records were set during February, April, May, July,
August, and September, with July being the warmest month in the
historical record for that country.
Over the contiguous United States, annual mean 1998 temperatures
averaged 1.2 above the 1961-90 mean, which is the nation's second
warmest year in the historical record. Temperatures over the eastern
half of the country averaged 1.0 above normal for the year as a whole,
while below-average temperatures were confinedto the far West. Eleven
states located mainly in the Midwest and the Northeast set annual
record temperatures during 1998
