Many foreigners, having arrived in Russia, for example, to Moscow or Belgorod, are sincerely surprised that winter here is not so tidy. The stereotype created by the media is collapsing. But these cities are far from the whole country, and in fact, in the Russian Federation there are a lot of places where the temperature is lowered significantly below 0 degrees. And in these harsh conditions of the eternal winter, people live and work.
The coldest places of Russia
Research "East", located in Antarctica, the coldest place not only Russia, but also the entire planet, was founded back in 1957. The day of discovery and became the warmest in the entire history of observations - the temperature then amounted to -13.6 ° C. The coldest fixed temperature is -89.2 ° C.
Interestingly, that the territory on which the East station is standing is to log in to be logical to the largest desert in the world, because precipitation is practically no precipitation.
The city of Yakutsk, the Republic of Sakha, Yakutia, with the largest population of all settlements located in the north-east of the country, is also the coldest city of the globe. In January, the average temperature here is41 ° C. The coldest day in the history of observations was recorded in 1946, when it was -64 ° C on the street. Savings locals that frosts are transferred enough here.
Verkhoyansk and Oymyakon are two more settlements of Yakutia with a rigid frosty climate. The record of negative temperatures in the first of them was -67.1 ° C, and in the second and even below -71.2 ° C. The villages are recessed in a niche between the mountains where the ice air is assembled - from here and so strong frosts.
Oddly enough, but summer in Verkhoyansk and Oymyakne more than hot - in 2010 temperatures were fixed + 37.3 ° C and +34.6 ° C, respectively.
From the numerous Russian seas the most cold is the East Siberian Sea, located in the North Ocean Basin. The water temperature is that in the summer that in winter it is not more than -1.8 ° C almost year-round the sea is covered with drifting floors, the thickness of which is several meters.
The coldest place in the world that does not belong to Russia
From foreign possessions with constantly low temperatures, the most cold place is Greenland, owned by the State of Denmark. The island is an area of \u200b\u200bmore than 2 million square meters. M, is in the waters of the Arctic Icetic and Atlantic Oceans. The average daily winter temperature is here -47 ° C, and the record minus was recorded in 1954 (-66 ° C).
This rating presents the coldest places of different parts of the world and continents: Antarctica, Europe, Asia, Africa, North America, South America, as well as Australia and Oceania. The coldest place of Antarctica and the whole land as a whole is the Russian station "East". July 21, 1983 here was ...
The coldest place of Antarctica
The coldest place of Antarctica and the whole land as a whole is the Russian station "East". On July 21, 1983, the lowest temperature was recorded here on our planet in the history of meteorological bullies -89.2 degrees Celsius. Naturally, such frosts at the Vostok Station are not all year round. The average temperature of August (the coldest month at the station) is -68 ° C. The average temperature of December (the warmest month) -31,9 ° C. The warmest day in the history of the East station is January 11, 2002, then the temperature reached the election of -12.2 ° C.
The coldest part of the world on earth
After Antarctica, the coldest part of the world on Earth is Asia, where low temperatures recorded again on the Russian territory. The disputes for the title of the pole of the cold of the northern hemisphere are among themselves two settlements in Yakutia - the city of Verkhoyansk (population of 1,200 people) and the village of Oymyakon (the population of about 500 people).
Officially, this title belongs to Verojansk, since on February 5, 1892, the temperature of -67.8 ° C was recorded on the local meteorological station, which is a record for the history of official meteorological observations in the northern hemisphere. In Oymyakne, there were no meteorlements, but unofficial in 1924, the temperature of -71.2 ° C was recorded there. According to other data, this record was beaten in 1938, when the temperature in Oymyakne sank to -77.8 ° C. If you compare the height above sea level, the village of Oymyakon and the East Antarctic station, then the Oymyakon can be considered the coldest place on Earth, since the station "Vostok" is located at an altitude of 3,488 meters above sea level, while Oymyakon is on Alight of about 70 meters above sea level.
Officially, the lowest temperature is incorporated in Oymyakne -67.7 ° C (in 1933). Surprisingly, in the summer months in the coldest places of Russia, it was hot in the summer: on July 28, 2010 in Oymyakne, it was +34.6 ° C, and in Verkhoyansk the temperature record with a plus sign is +37.3 ° C.
The coldest place of North America
The third of the cold is part of the world is North America. On January 9, 1954, at the North Ice Research Station (North Ice), the temperature of -66.1 ° C was recorded. If you take directly the mainland, the title of the coldest place of North America belongs to the currently abandoned Canadian village SNAG (SNAG), where the temperature of -63 ° C was recorded on February 3, 1947.
The coldest place of Europe
In addition to Verkhoyansk and Oymyakon, which are the most cold places in Asia and the entire northern hemisphere, in Russia, namely in the Komi Republic, is the coldest place of Europe - this is the village of Ust-Schuldor with a population of about 50 people. On December 31, 1978, the temperature of -58.1 ° C was recorded here.
The coldest place of South America
The coldest place of South America is the Argentine City of Sarmiento (Sarmiento), where the temperature of -33 ° C was recorded on June 17, 1907.
The coldest place of Australia and Oceania
The coldest place of Australia and Oceania is the city of Ranferli (Ranfurly) in New Zealand, where the temperature of -25.6 ° C was recorded on July 18, 1903.
The coldest place of Africa
The warmer in total in Africa, however, there are minus temperatures. The coldest place of Africa is the city of IFRAN (IFRANE) in Morocco, where the temperature of -23.9 ° C was recorded on February 11, 1935.
Incredible facts
Mother Nature took care that we are quite comfortable to feel at this planet, but there are places where harsh natural conditions take up over human endurance. You hardly want to go there as a tourist, but it is possible to recognize about these places, you can more appreciate the beauty of native places.
The coldest places of the world
Station East, Antarctica
Located near the southern geomagnetic pole, and at an altitude of about 3,500 m above the sea level, the Russian East Research Station dwells in a constant cold. In July 1983, the lowest temperature on Earth was registered here, namely -89.2 ° C. Near the East station is the Lake East - the largest planet lake, buried under 4 km of ice, which Russian scientists recently drilled.
Yurik, Canada
Erika's research base in the north of Elsmir Islands in Canada is often referred to as the coldest population of the world. It is on the 80th parallels and was created as a meteorological station in 1947. The average annual temperature here is about -20 ° C. In winter, it drops to -40 ° C.
Oymyakon, Russia
About 350 km south of the Northern Polar Circle, there is an Oymyakon in Yakutia, which plunged into unprecedented frosts in 1926, when the air temperature fell to -71.2 ° C, becoming the lowest temperature of the northern hemisphere. Oymyakon is a place of solid extremes. In the winter day lasts about 3 hours, and in the summer the sun can shine for 21 hours.
Mac-Kinley, USA
Denali or Mac-Kinley Mountain is the highest vertex in North America and for a long time was considered the coldest mountain on Earth. The air temperature drops here to -40 ° C. To climb the 6194 meter vertex Alaska, you need to be a mountaineering, but you can walk along a little warmer places nearby, in Denali National Park.
Ulan Bator, Mongolia
Located in the Mongolian steppe, about 1300 m above sea level, Ulan Bator is the coldest capital of the world. In January, the temperature rarely rises above -16 ° C, and the winter themselves are quite long and harsh.
The hottest places of the world
Desert home-lout, Iran
In 2005, the NASA satellite recorded the highest surface temperature exceeding a 70 degree barrier. In combination with heat, the desert of the cheat-let competes from the desert Atakam in Chile for the title of the most dry place on Earth, and all the creature, including bacteria, will not survive the entire surface of the central cheap-lie. This desert is proud of its unique natural phenomena, including sand dunes, whose height reaches 500 m due to strong winds.
El Azizya, Libya
The city of El Azizia is 40 km south of Tripoli, where in September 1922 the highest temperature was registered 57.8 ° C. The city is located just an hour from the Mediterranean, where you can cool from the unbearable heat.
Death Valley, California, USA
While 86 m below sea level, the well-known strip of the Mojave desert may be called the Death Valley. Extended and thinthine delays hot air, which leads to a crazy heat. Death Valley is a high-temperature record holder in a western hemisphere. So in 1913 the temperature of 56.7 ° C was recorded here. In the middle of the summer, the average temperature is 47 ° C, and this is the drinker in the United States.
Dallol, Ethiopia
In Dallol, located in the Afraire Basin, Africa is immersed to a depth of 116 m below the sea level, and the temperature begins to go. In Dallol, the highest average annual temperature in the world, namely 34.4 ° C. If this is not hot for you, you can visit Dallol volcano, located nearby.
Bangkok, Thailand
The World Meteorological Organization called Bangkok the hottest city of the planet, where the average annual temperature is 28 ° C. Months from March to May are the hottest when the air temperature comes to 34 ° C at 90 percent of humidity.
Let's look at what temperature records In the world and the places where they were fixed. In other words, this selection of 10 the hottest and cold places of the earth.
First, I suggest to consider the coldest. These places for the general opinion are the most cold on earth. Brrr - I would not want to live there (:
- Antarctica. Station East.
It belongs to this station, as you probably have already guessed, Russian. It was here that was fixed the coldest temperature. The significant date is July 21, 1983, then there was a lutty frost, and the bit of the thermometer showed record of our planet -89,2 ° C. And now a little more specifically about this place: the height above the sea level is 3.5 kilometers, the station is located in the area of \u200b\u200bone of the largest lakes of the world: the same lake East. Naturally, the lake is not on the surface, it is under ice at a depth of 4 kilometers.
- Canada. Station Eureka.
This research station is often called the coldest settlement in the world. -20 ° C - the average annual air temperature, and in winter T is usually lowered to -40 ° C. This station is conceived as meteorological and was created in the middle of the last century.
- Russia. Yakutia. Oymyakon.
Well, this place is already in the north: 350 km from the northern polar circle south. Here was fixed reference the lowest temperature for the northern hemisphere -71.2 ° С (1926). What confirms the memorial board installed after this event.
- USA. Denali (Mac-Kingley Mountain).
This is the highest point of North America. Mac-Kingley Mountain - the coldest on EarthHer height is 6 194 meters.
- Mongolia. Ulan Bator.
And this is already The coldest capital. Height above sea level is 1.3 kilometers. The thermometer very rarely shows the temperature above -16 ° C in January.
Well, we have visited the most "ice" places. Personally, I wanted to immediately drink a cup of hot coffee or tea, but it's not necessary to do it at all, because then we will go with you into the hottest countries. Well, let's continue!
So, the hottest places in the world.
- Libya. El Azizia.
El Azizya is just an hour away from the Mediterranean Sea. And despite this is very hot there. For example, on September 13, 1922, such sultry days were stood that the thermometer column tirelessly showed a mark of 57.8 ° C.
- Africa. Ethiopia. Dallol.
The location is below sea level 116 meters. And it is in Dallol that is observed. record high average air temperature +34,4 ° C. The terrain is covered with salt and by nature is volcanic, so that nothing grows here and there is nothing alive.
- Libya. Dashty-Lut desert.
It is in this desert that fixed the highest temperature on the surface of the earth +70 ° C. Here it is a record !! Here is the maximum temperature !! By the way about the date: fix this temperature here were able to 2 times: in 2004 and in 2005. This desert is one of the most arid planet places. There is also nothing alive here, including even bacteria. Imagine: even bacteria will not survive there! But the dunes there like in a fairy tale: reach a mark of 500 meters in height and are the most beautiful!
- USA. California. Death Valley.
This desert belongs to the second record at the highest temperature: +56.7 ° C. The average summer temperature here is approximately +47 ° C. Death Valley is the most dry place in the USA, it is surrounded by mountains and is located 86 meters below sea level.
- Taillid. Bangkok.
The average annual temperature in this city is +28 ° C. The most hot here from March to May - the average temperature in these months + 34 ° C, and if you also consider that the humidity is 90%, then this is generally (in vain I drank a cup of hot coffee all Taki (\u003d).
Let's summarize. We visited amazing places: it was in them were fixed temperature records, the lowest and highest. Personally, I realized for myself: no extremes need; And it turns out that it is quite suitable for the climate of the place where I live, here it happens and cold and hot, but compared to the places listed above, in moderation.
The coldest place on earth
The coldest place on Earth is in Antarctica. This place is called - the pool of the cold.
The lowest natural temperature on the planet Earth was recorded on July 21, 1883 on the Soviet (currently Russian) East Station in Antarctica. The measurement result showed the temperature - 89.2 degrees Celsius.
The East station is located at an altitude of 3488 meters above sea level, located away from the ocean, so to the nearest coast of more than 1000 km, the polar night lasts from May to June, all these factors affect the ambient temperature at the specified point.
Geographic coordinates of the station East: 78 ° 28 "S 106 ° 48" E
For comparison, it should be said that the South Pole is not the coldest place on the planet, so the minimum fixed temperature is -82.8 ° degrees Celsius.
Scientists argue that the East station is not the coldest exact on the planet, but in Antarctica there are still very little measuring equipment for fixing temperatures on all surfaces of the continent, most likely there are points where the temperature has lowered and below - 89.2 degrees Celsius, but it It was not recorded by trusted temperature measurement devices.
The coldest place in the northern hemisphere of the Earth
January 15, 1885 in Verkhoyansk S.F. Kalovik was recorded temperature -67.8 degrees Celsius.
However, it is necessary to understand that this is a single incoming case. In practice, it is customary to determine the pole of the cold at an average temperature throughout the year.
At the moment, the pole of cold in the northern hemisphere is 2 terrain.
- city of Verkhoyansk, located in Russia, in the Republic of Sakha
- Village Oymyakon, Russia, Sakha Republic
