#591597 — 2009: Second Warmest Year on Record; End of Warmest Decade,01.21.10

http://www.nasa.gov/topics/earth/features/temp-analysis-2009.html


2009 was tied for the second warmest year in the modern record, a new 
NASA analysis of global surface temperature shows. The analysis, 
conducted by the Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS) in New York 
City, also shows that in the Southern Hemisphere, 2009 was the warmest 
year since modern records began in 1880.

Although 2008 was the coolest year of the decade -- due to strong 
cooling of the tropical Pacific Ocean -- 2009 saw a return to 
near-record global temperatures. The past year was only a fraction of a 
degree cooler than 2005, the warmest year on record, and tied with a 
cluster of other years -- 1998, 2002, 2003, 2006 and 2007 -- as the 
second warmest year since recordkeeping began.

“There’s always an interest in the annual temperature numbers and on a 
given year’s ranking, but usually that misses the point,” said James 
Hansen, the director of GISS. “There's substantial year-to-year 
variability of global temperature caused by the tropical El Niño-La Niña 
cycle. But when we average temperature over five or ten years to 
minimize that variability, we find that global warming is continuing 
unabated."
