Know: Highest and lowest temperatures which took place on Earth?

01:54
Temperature is a wider concept which is broadly dependent on many factors which takes place at a particular time. Factors which depend are Sun's positions, seasonal time, Earth rotation, Pollution which takes place in a particular area, Latitude and Longitudes, Wind flow, Humidity level, Sea levels, Altitudes, Deforestation etc.

Many factors attribute to the temperature values which takes place. Earth has been broadly divided into:
The Equator,  Tropic of Cancer, and Tropic of Capricorn. Mostly temperatures are highly concentrated at the equator region where as temperatures are extremely cold while travelling towards the south and north pole.

 Climatic condition used to be normal in the past but now a days depletion of environment started taking place irreversibly. Normally desert holds highest temperature as its dry in nature where it can't hold moisture but during the nights it really goes into freezing temperatures. Vice verse places near the south and north pole are extremely frozen up with thick ice and glaciers.


DETAILS:

1. HIGHEST TEMPERATURE:

  • Exact location: El Azizia, Libya
  • Desert: SAHARA
  • Temperature: 136° Fahrenheit (58° Celsius)
  • Officially recorded date: September 13, 1922
  • Unofficial Temperature : Delta, Mexico 60°c [1953] and San Luis , Mexico : 58°C [1933]
2. LOWEST TEMPERATURE:


  • Exact location: Vostok Station
  • White Continent: Antarctica
  • Temperature: -128.6° Fahrenheit (-89.6° Celsius) [There were no inhabitants in the particular area]
  • Officially recorded date: July 21, 1983. 
  • Temperature: -90.4° Fahrenheit (-68° Celsius) at Oymyakon, February 6, 1933. [ Inhabititants were sighted in the particular place. Estimated to be around 3800 in number]



Note: Unofficially in the above context means that there was no official recording of temperature which could meet International standards.



Conclusion: Temperatures now a days are beyond the control where emissions of poisonous gases are leading to ozone depletion and causing a greater impact on Global warming. Thus it results in an unseasonal conditions, rising of sea level, decrease in land area etc.

"Protecting the environment need to be practiced by humans which could help the younger generation in coming days."
