Which country in the world is the coldest and which is the hottest?
Because the earth is so large, many areas are still unknown to humans. From a known perspective, the coldest place in the world (Antarctica) is relatively recognized. But the hottest place has always been controversial!
Antarctica in the southern hemisphere is the coldest place in the known world. It is covered with thick ice and snow all year round, with an average snow thickness of 1,700 meters. 3/4 of the energy from the sun is reflected back into the air, and the ground temperature is very low. In Antarctica (Eastern Station), the annual average temperature is below -25. On July 21, 1983, the absolute minimum temperature measured was -89.2. In addition, some foreign media claimed that a record of -94.5 has also occurred near the South Pole!
On the inhabited continent, the coldest places in the world can be regarded as the Verkhoyansk and Oymyakon regions in Eastern Siberia, Russia, in Asia. The coldest place in the Northern Hemisphere is neither at the North Pole nor within the Arctic Circle, but in Oymyakon in eastern Siberia. Located at 6316.2 North Latitude. There, in February 1885, it was awarded the title of "Cold Pole" in the Northern Hemisphere with an official record of -67.7. In January 1964, it broke the original record with a low temperature of -71.
Oymyakon is a village in northeastern Siberia, Russia, under the jurisdiction of the Sakhalin State, with an altitude of about 750 meters. Known for some of the lowest temperatures in human settlements. The average temperature is below -40 for 3 months of the year. When breathing outdoors, you can even feel the saliva in your mouth freezing.
The hottest place in the world: the so-called Hot Pole has always been controversial!
The hottest place in the world is not at the equator, but in the desert areas on the continent between 20 and 30 degrees north latitude. In the tropical continent of Africa, Sudan has a summer temperature of over 47°C and is known as the "stove of the world". Dallol in northeastern Ethiopia has an average annual temperature of 34.5°C, ranking highest in the world. Azizia, south of the Libyan capital Tripoli, The world's extreme highest temperature record of 57.8 was once observed, and it was once called the "World's Hot Pole". Later, this record was broken by Basra, Iraq, where the extreme highest temperature was 58.8, becoming the new "World's Hot Pole". "Pole".
The world has measured thermal poles several times, and the locations have been constantly changing. Here is an introduction:
The first time the hottest place in the world was on July 17, 1879 The absolute temperature measured in Ougra, Algeria, reached 53.6 on that day.
The second hottest place in the world was in July 1913, when a temperature of 56.7 occurred in Dais Valley, California, USA. Since then, the "hot pole" has traveled from Africa to the Americas.
The third hottest place in the world was on September 13, 1922, in Aziziya, Libya, Africa. The "Ghibli" hot wind broke the world's hot pole record with 57.8.
The fourth hottest place in the world was in August 1933, when the highest temperature of 57.8 was measured in San Luis, Mexico. In this way, St. Louis shares the title of the world's "hottest pole".
The fifth hottest place in the world was from 1960 to 1966. The six-year average temperature measured in Dallol, Ethiopia was 34.4. This is certainly not enough. Those high.
The sixth hottest place in the world was after 1966, in the African country of Somalia, where the temperature measured in the shadow was as high as 63.
In addition, the high temperature of 70.7 degrees Celsius in Iran's Lut Desert created the highest surface temperature in meteorological records.
Due to the lack of unified measurement standards and institutional recognition in various regions, hot poles have always been controversial!
The currently recognized hot pole in the world is: Basra (Iraq), the highest record: 58.8
Of course some people say that people in the world are cold, but Tokyo is hot, so just laugh!
