US climate scientists revealed that the temperature on the outermost layer of the World Ocean hit a record 21.1°C in April 2023, The Guardian reports.
The waters of the world's oceans accumulate more and more heat, which causes the temperature to gradually sink deeper.
Climatologists say that the release of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere through deforestation and the combustion of fossil fuels accounts for more than 90% of the extra heat.
Higher temperatures in the ocean elevate the risk of tornadoes and may cause glaciers to melt.
