Drought destroyed sunflower crops near the Gardon river on August 10, 2022, in Anduze, France. Last summer was Europe’s hottest summer on record, and 2022 was its second-warmest year on record.
The planet continued its warming trend in 2022, with last year ranking as the sixth-warmest year on record since 1880, according to an analysis by scientists from NOAA’s National Centers for Environmental Information .A world map plotted with color blocks depicting percentiles of global average land and ocean temperatures for the full year 2022.
It also marked the 46th-consecutive year with global temperatures rising above the 20th-century average. The 10-warmest years on record have all occurred since 2010, with the last nine years among the 10-warmest years. The 2022 Northern Hemisphere surface temperature was also the sixth highest in the 143-year record at 1.98 degrees F above average. The Southern Hemisphere surface temperature for 2022 was the seventh highest on record at 1.10 degrees F above average.
Map of global average surface temperature in 2022 compared to the 1991-2020 average, with places that were warmer than average colored red, and places that were cooler than average colored blue. The bars on the graph shows global temperatures compared to the 20th-century average each year from 2022 back to 1976 –the last year the world was cooler than average. Based on data from NOAA's National Centers for Environmental Information.

Another Year of Record Heat for the Oceans - Advances in Atmospheric SciencesChanges in ocean heat content (OHC), salinity, and stratification provide critical indicators for changes in Earth’s energy and water cycles. These cycles have been profoundly altered due to the emission of greenhouse gasses and other anthropogenic substances by human activities, driving pervasive changes in Earth’s climate system. In 2022, the world’s oceans, as given by OHC, were again the hottest in the historical record and exceeded the previous 2021 record maximum. According to IAP/CAS data, the 0–2000 m OHC in 2022 exceeded that of 2021 by 10.9 ± 8.3 ZJ (1 Zetta Joules=1021 Joules); and according to NCEI/NOAA data, by 9.1 ± 8.7 ZJ. Among seven regions, four basins (the North Pacific, North Atlantic, the Mediterranean Sea, and southern oceans) recorded their highest OHC since the 1950s. The salinity-contrast index, a quantification of the “salty gets saltier—fresh gets fresher” pattern, also reached its highest level on record in 2022, implying continued amplification of the global hydrological cycle. Regional OHC and salinity changes in 2022 were dominated by a strong La Niña event. Global upper-ocean stratification continued its increasing trend and was among the top seven in 2022.
