But there is still time - he appealed - to manage the inevitable and avoid the unmanageable.&quot; This year, when El Ni\u00f1o (warming of the waters of the Pacific Ocean) is in a positive phase, and after a record February, the record could be broken again. &quot;The year 2024 - says Giorgi - could be the warmest year ever, or the second warmest together with 2023.

I am most concerned about the temperature of the sea. Let&#039;s go back to the storm Vaia in 2018: an essential element for the development of the cyclone was precisely the fact that in the previous months the waters of the Mediterranean Sea were &quot;very warm&quot;. And the warmer it is, the more water evaporates: the air becomes moist and then ventilates in very strong storms. I therefore expect even more intense and increasingly frequent storms.&quot; <em>(Filippo Giorgi, ICTP Earth Sciences Section Director, more at <a href=\"https:\/\/ilpiccolo.gelocal.it\/regione\/2024\/03\/03\/news\/clima_nobel_giorgi_tempo_stringe_ridurre_subito_emissioni-14116030\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">ilpiccolo.gelocal<\/span><\/a>)<\/em><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Climatologist Filippo Giorgi, Director of the Earth Sciences Section of ICTP (Center for Theoretical Physics in Miramar) and member of the IPCC,<\/p>","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-25106","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-klimaticka-zmena"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.co2news.sk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25106","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.co2news.sk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.co2news.sk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.co2news.sk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/7"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.co2news.sk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=25106"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.co2news.sk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25106\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.co2news.sk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=25106"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.co2news.sk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=25106"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.co2news.sk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=25106"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
