The global soil\u00a0 is increasingly experiencing exceptionally high temperatures<\/strong>, a phenomenon linked to climate change that occurs less intensely in the air, however. This is supported by a study<\/a> by the Helmholtz Center for Environmental Research (UFZ)<\/strong> in Leipzig, Germany. According to the research, published in the journal Nature Climate Change, this trend is most evident in central Europe.<\/p>\n The findings fill a gap in knowledge about trends in \u00a0soil temperatures<\/strong>, which, unlike air temperatures, have reportedly been the subject of little attention for years due to the absence of reliable data, the researchers say in a statement<\/a> released by Helmholtz calling into question a “considerably more complex measurement.”<\/p>\n
