The year 2014 ranks as Earths warmest since 1880, according to two separate analyses by NASA and National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) scientists.
The 10 warmest years in the instrumental record, with the exception of 1998, have now occurred since 2000. This trend continues a long-term warming of the planet, according to an analysis of surface temperature measurements by scientists at NASAs Goddard Institute of Space Studies (GISS) in New York.
In an independent analysis of the raw data, also released Friday, NOAA scientists also found 2014 to be the warmest on record.
NASA is at the forefront of the scientific investigation of the dynamics of the Earths climate on a global scale, said John Grunsfeld, associate administrator for the Science Mission Directorate at NASA Headquarters in Washington. The observed long-term warming trend and the ranking of 2014 as the warmest year on record reinforces the importance for NASA to study Earth as a complete system, and particularly to understand the role and impacts of human activity.
Since 1880, Earths average surface temperature has warmed by about 1.4 degrees Fahrenheit (0.8 degrees Celsius), a trend that is largely driven by the increase in carbon dioxide and other human emissions into the planets atmosphere. The majority of that warming has occurred in the past three decades.
This is the latest in a series of warm years, in a series of warm decades. While the ranking of individual years can be affected by chaotic weather patterns, the long-term trends are attributable to drivers of climate change that right now are dominated by human emissions of greenhouse gases, said GISS Director Gavin Schmidt.
While 2014 temperatures continue the planets long-term warming trend, scientists still expect to see year-to-year fluctuations in average global temperature caused by phenomena such as El Nio or La Nia. These phenomena warm or cool the tropical Pacific and are thought to have played a role in the flattening of the long-term warming trend over the past 15 years. However, 2014s record warmth occurred during an El Nio-neutral year.
NOAA provides decision makers with timely and trusted science-based information about our changing world, said Richard Spinrad, NOAA chief scientist. As we monitor changes in our climate, demand for the environmental intelligence NOAA provides is only growing. Its critical that we continue to work with our partners, like NASA, to observe these changes and to provide the information communities need to build resiliency.
Regional differences in temperature are more strongly affected by weather dynamics than the global mean. For example, in the U.S. in 2014, parts of the Midwest and East Coast were unusually cool, while Alaska and three western states California, Arizona and Nevada experienced their warmest year on record, according to NOAA.
The GISS analysis incorporates surface temperature measurements from 6,300 weather stations, ship- and buoy-based observations of sea surface temperatures, and temperature measurements from Antarctic research stations. This raw data is analyzed using an algorithm that takes into account the varied spacing of temperature stations around the globe and urban heating effects that could skew the calculation. The result is an estimate of the global average temperature difference from a baseline period of 1951 to 1980.

To be powered by two new engines -- a one-litre petrol power engine and an 800-cc diesel engine -- the car is expected to hit the road next year.

The Nano did not take off the way Tata Motors would have liked, despite aggressive pricing and Rs 4,000 crore (Rs 40 billion) of investments in development, marketing and a dedicated plant at Sanand in Gujarat.
But the company, Indias largest automaker by revenue, is looking to recover some of the cost incurred on the Nano platform.
The plan is to develop a slightly bigger hatchback at the Sanand factory, to take on the Maruti Suzuki Alto, Indias top-selling car.
The new car, code-named the Pelican, is being developed on the X302 platform, an upgraded version of the Nano, Business Standard has learnt from several industry sources.
To be powered by two new engines -- a one-litre petrol power engine and an 800-cc diesel engine -- the car is expected to hit the road next year.
The bigger car will be sold under a new brand. Its diesel variant, the cheapest diesel car in India, will later be exported to several other markets, a source said.
Another added: Tata has given its suppliers a modest sales target of about 2,500 units a month.

Health apps and virtual doctor visits are gaining popularity around the globe. Some say it is the future of medicine, but Dr. Eric Topol, author of The Patient Will See You Now, says this new era goes far beyond flashy phones and gadgets, and that the future of medicine is really in your hands.
People want their own data, they become frustrated when it takes too long to get their own tests and lab results back and now with these new types of devices, they can have it right on their phone, Topol told FoxNews.com.
Topol, a cardiologist at Scripps Health in San Diego, Calif., believes new technology will ultimately democratize medicine and enable patients to take control of their own health care and medical data.
New medical gadgets and smartphone attachments can measure a variety of important vitals such as heart rhythms, blood pressure and respiratory rate.
A lot of the diagnosis and monitoring functions will be done through little devices smartphones by the patient with computer assistance. So its a real big change in the model of how we render healthcare, Topol said.
Even though digitized medicine sounds exciting, one of the major fears that affect all forms of digital advancements is privacy. With so much personal medical information living on the Internet, many Americans may not feel protected. Topol doesnt think privacy and security issues have been tackled properly yet, but he is hopeful that a resolution will be made.
[We have] all of these medical metrics and labs and we have no place for them, Topol said. So each individual, eventually, is going to have their own personal cloud with all of this data stored. By having it at an individual basis, that will reduce the risk of hacking. When its in mountains of data, of millions of people, that's the most attractive target for hacking.
Keeping an optimistic look into how medicine will continue to become digitized, Topol shares a few technologies he thinks will have a big impact in 2015.
Blood pressure trackersWe have 70 million people with high blood pressure, and we have never had a way to get blood pressure without a cuff; we have that coming now. Two companies like Quanttus with a watch and Scanadu with a scout [monitor] that you can put to your forehead. You can get blood pressure easily, passively and thats going to be a real step forward, Toppol, who consults for Quanntus, said.
Continuous glucose monitoring devicesFor all these children that have type 1 diabetes and their parents want to know what's going on with their glucose which is being monitored every five minutes. So weve got the big glucose center companies, not only Dexcom, Medtronic and Abbott, each of them are working on direct-to-phone display of data, Toppol, who serves on the board of directors for Dexcom, said.

Research not retail may well be the mantra for local officials excited to see New Jersey's first private medical school at the former Hoffmann-La Roche site in Clifton and Nutley sometime in 2017.
The announcement came this past week that a partnership between Seton Hall University and the parent company of Hackensack University Medical Center would utilize part of the massive space located just off Route 3. While this comes as especially good news for Nutley and Clifton, it is also good news for all of us. New Jersey doesn't just need jobs; it needs good-paying ones. Ones that a family can support itself with. When Hoffmann-La Roche operated on the site, it provided some 8,500 jobs and paid $14 million in local property taxes. New Jersey overall has lagged behind much of the country when it comes to creating jobs.
It is not just the news of the intent to found a medical school but the hope that the school will serve as anchor for research and development for the massive 2-million-square-foot complex. While the name for the school has yet to have name, there is real promise. Seton Hall is a fine university and can lend its expertise in putting together a top-notch medical school.
The timing seems fine as well. Locally we are seeing a bit of recovery. Bloomingdale and Butler are being bolstered by Quick Chek which is working on not just one but three new sites. True these kinds of retail jobs are the greatest but they also provide jobs, construction jobs. Other places along the Main Street/Hamburg turnpike section of Bloomingdale are seeing a bit of a renaissance. We like the idea of a brew pub serving up locally brewed beers and can only wish the buyers of the old Kings Corner the best of luck on their endeavor.
Like it or not in the highly volatile electronic media age, retail is no longer that attractive. Entrepreneurs of all types are needed. Whether, they are medical researchers like those in Nutley/Clifton or the smaller ones like those cropping up in Bloomingdale and Butler, they need to be nourished. We have way too many vacant buildings scattered through our region.
