Temperature anomaly (K; relative to 1971-2000) - Ocean: latitudes between 00N and 90N - NOAA - Monthly

Latest updates. In oceanic locations at latitudes between 00 degrees North and 90 degrees North, the temperature anomaly relative to the 1971-2000 average stood at 0.94 degrees Kelvin in August 2025, compared to 0.92 in July 2025.

Sample. In this monthly time series, there are 2,108 observations in total. The series covers the span of time stretching from January 1850 to August 2025.

History. Here's a glimpse of a few simple statistics we computed on the whole sample: the anomaly hit a trough of -0.83 degrees Kelvin in August 1904; it hit a peak of 1.20 in September 2023; it had an average value of -0.12.
