It was the second warmest October on record, and 2016 still looks to be the warmest year on record. There has been a lot of heat in the Arctic and a lot of cold in Siberia lately.

Thank you for the reference! Waiting for the final tally for October 2016.

Incidentally, unless aliens show up and dump a bunch of liquid nitrogen on the planet, it's safe to say that this year will mark the 40th year in a row that the temperature has been above last century's average global temperature. In other words, if you can't remember the bicentennial, then you can't remember a year that's been below average, temperature wise.

The final analysis of the data is in for October 2016. Warming trends continue.

Human influenced Global Warming has generated a feed back process involving the increased production of microbial activity in soils which apparently accelerates Global Warming.

Climate Change News: 'Feedback' Found Worsening Of Greenhouse Emission; It Is Not From Humans This Time

As people could feel the alarming effect of climate change, more studies have been conducted. Thus, a huge research that investigates the effects of global warming found that it will just get worse.
The current huge-scale study with no less than 50 authors from all around the world documented a what they call climate system "feedback." The authors claimed that the global warming could be remarkably worse over the coming decades. The study was published in the journal Nature.
In the feedback, they have found that the soil of the planet became a massive depository of carbon because of the plants and roots that have grown and died in them. In many cases, these happened over a vast time period, wherein the plants pull in carbon from the air through photosynthesis and use it to fuel their growth.
Thus, it has been long feared by that as warming rises, the microorganisms present in the soils would "feedback" or respond by very naturally increasing the rate of their respiration. It is a process where, in turn, they release methane or carbon dioxide that is the leading cause of greenhouse gasses.
This concern was validated by the new study. The paper shows that "Our analysis provides empirical support for the long-held concern that rising temperatures stimulate the loss of soil C to the atmosphere, driving a positive land C-climate feedback that could accelerate planetary warming over the twenty-first century," Top News reported.

2016 Edges 1998 as Warmest Year on Record

Globally, 2016 edged out 1998 by +0.02 C to become the warmest year in the 38-year satellite temperature record, according to scientists. Because the margin of error is about 0.10 C, this would technically be a statistical tie, with a higher probability that 2016 was warmer than 1998. The main difference was the extra warmth in the Northern Hemisphere in 2016 compared to 1998.

2016 was the warmest year on record according to NASA and NOAA. The El Nino was partially responsible for the record warm year, but the emission of CO2 and other greenhouse gases by humans was the primary factor.
