Global warming and decadal trends of sea surface temperature in Hurghada, Red Sea, Egypt
The Red Sea is a semi-enclosed sea basin that is extremely warm, and it is experiencing rapidly rising temperatures. Sea Surface Temperature (SST) is influenced by weather factors as well as oceanographic factors. The relationship between SST and air temperature (AT) was studied using data from 2010 to 2019 for both air and sea temperatures, and a comparison between these data and those in Luksch’s tables. A strong relationship was found between the temperature in the air and the surface temperature of the sea, where the air and sea temperatures reach maximum values in the summer season. The temperature tends to increase at an annual rate of 0.109 while the sea temperature tends to increase at an annual rate of 0.036 °C. It was found that the air temperature increased in the period 2010-2019 by about 4.57°C, while the difference between them in the SST was about 2.21°C.
