The 2023 heat spike: apocalyptic or unusual?
The Global Heat Anomaly 2023
Many climate scientists are very worried about the global heat anomaly seen in 2023, and for varying reasons. No single year has confounded their predictive capabilities more than 2023. They didn’t see it coming, but perhaps they were looking in the wrong direction?
Writing in the journal Nature, Gavin Schmidt of NASA’s Goddard Institute for Space Science says that:
“[the] temperature anomaly has come out of the blue, revealing an unprecedented knowledge gap perhaps for the first time since about 40 years ago, when satellite data began offering modellers an unparalleled, real-time view of Earth’s climate system.”
