Global ocean heat has hit a new record every single day for the last year

In March 2023, ocean surface temperatures started breaking records and haven’t stopped since, fueling concern about the impacts on marine life and extreme weather.

The world’s oceans have now experienced an entire year of unprecedented heat, with a new temperature record broken every day, new data shows. Global ocean surface temperatures started breaking daily records in mid-March last year, according to data from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and the University of Maine’s Climate Reanalyzer, fueling concerns for marine life and extreme weather across the planet.

Data from NOAA’s Coral Reef Watch tool shows that the problem goes well beyond Australia, and that the world could face a fourth global mass coral bleaching event in the next few months. Ocean heat sets the stage for more ferocious hurricanes. “The warmer the ocean, the more energy to fuel storms is available,” said Karina von Schuckmann, an oceanographer at Mercator Ocean International in France.
