Oceans are heating up
The seas around Denmark are one degree warmer
As air temperatures hit 30 degrees Celsius and bathers look forward to water temperatures of 21 degrees, new figures from the Danish Meteorological Institute (DMI) have shown that the seas around the Danish coast have heated up by one degree over the last 30 years.
Measurements taken in the Drogden Channel in the Øresund Strait between 1900 and 1985 showed a fairly constant rate of about 8.5-8.7 degrees. But after that the temperature increased by over one degree in the uppermost one-metre layer of water registered by the sensors.
