Global surface temperatures in 2010 tied 2005 as the warmest on record, according to researchers. The analysis found 2010 approximately 1.34 F warmer than the average global surface temperature from 1951 to 1980. To measure climate change, scientists look at long-term trends. The temperature trend, including data from 2010, shows the climate has warmed by approximately 0.36 F per decade since the late 1970s. [Source: NASA News]
