Abstract

Coastal Surface Air Temperatures Record-setting high air temperatures were registered at all of the west Greenland long-term meteorological stations (Table 5.2). At Nuuk (Fig. 5.19), winter 2009/10 and spring and summer in 2010 were the warmest since 1873, when measurements began. At Prins Christian Sund, as at Nuuk, 2010 annual anomalies were three standard deviations above the 1971–2000 baseline. Warm anomalies were greatest at Aasiaat, where winter temperatures were 7°C above the 1971–2000 baseline, which is three standard deviations above the mean. Temperature anomalies extended west into Arctic Canada (see also section 5e5), but not into east and northeast Greenland.
