Mean global temperature 1945

Key Findings

Global mean temperature in 1945 was approximately 0.1°C above the 1951–1980 baseline, according to NASA GISTEMP. ERA5 reanalysis corroborates this — showing ~14.1°C absolute. Post-war industrial expansion contributed aerosol cooling that partially offset greenhouse gas forcing.
