Exploring the hottest places on the planet is like entering a universe of thermal extremes that challenge the limits of human survival. 491c36
It is amazing to see how some points in the world can experience extreme heat temperatures that are almost unbearable. Because of this, it is even difficult to define what the hottest place in the world would be, after all, there are areas around the planet where having a weather station is even impractical. However, it is through MODIS, an instrument located on some satellites of the NASA, that there is the possibility of measuring and obtaining an idea of the thermal radiation of the soil in inhospitable locations.
With this in mind, we have prepared a very comprehensive guide to all the hottest places in the world. Check out:
Hottest countries 4a6i11
Generally, countries close to equator line, at zero latitude, have higher temperatures throughout the year, unlike those further away from this area, towards the poles. The closer to the north in the Northern Hemisphere or the south in the Southern Hemisphere, the greater the seasonal variation in climatic conditions. This can result in a wider range of temperatures throughout the year.
Here, it is good to that temperature values do not exactly represent heat peaks in summer, but rather an annual average, considering variations throughout the seasons.
Niger, Africa: 27,78 °C 444p73

The average temperature in Niger it is usually 27,78 °C. Dry and quite hot, it is also made up of desert locations. In the country, the climate can be subdivided into three distinct seasons: an extremely hot and dry period in the middle of the beginning of the year, followed by a hot and humid phase with rain between June and September, and finally a mild winter from the end of the year until the beginning of the next one.

Burkina Faso, Africa: 28,67 °C 581d4r

Burkina Faso It has an annual average temperature of 28,67 °C. Like Mali, it is also a country with a tropical climate, which has a relatively warm temperature throughout the year. Fortunately, despite long periods of drought, rains also happen from time to time.

Mali, Africa: 28,78 °C h4g49

With an annual average temperature of 28,78 °C, Mali tops the list of the hottest countries in the world. Characterized by a dry climate with little precipitation, the center of the country is semi-arid and remains with intense temperatures for most of the year, even if it has short periods of rain. Timbuktu, one of its regions, is also part of the ranking of hottest places.
At the same time, in the southern region, the prevailing climate is that of a tropical savanna, marked by a better balance with dry and rainy seasons throughout the year.

warmer places 5j5r27
Unlike the hottest countries, which make up a list based more on their annual averages, the regions are much more specific examples of high temperatures. To give you an idea, although some can still be populated, most of them are so hot that they are incapable of receiving people.
dallol, ethiopia: 41 ° C 2n2t29

The place has already recorded a surprising temperature of 60°C, although its average maximum temperatures are just above 41°C. Proximity to a volcano also helps play a crucial role in this.
Due to these extreme temperatures, it is understandable that the city is a true ghost, without any residents.

Turpan, China: 50 ° C 2j255

With temperatures that can exceed 50°C, the place is in the northwest of the Chinese province of Xinjiang and is characterized by Buddhist temples amid a more desert landscape. The area is recognized as a prominent trade center and is surrounded by mountains, including the region's well-known volcano.

Lut Desert, Iran: 70,7 °C 6c4733

With temperatures above 70,7 °C and considered the hottest place on the planet, this region is located in the southeast of Iran and, according to measurements from NASA, has already recorded surface temperatures that exceeded this number.
Before reaching exceptionally high temperatures, it had already been identified as one of the places with the highest heat records in 2004 and 2007. During the summer, the place can border or exceed limits, much like other arid regions in mid-latitudes. .
It was in 2005 that the temperature took it to the top of the ranking of the hottest places in the world.

Brazil: one of the hottest places on the planet? 4x692v

It is true that Brazil is facing a sequence of months with exceptionally high temperatures and recording historical records in several regions.
The continuous increase in temperatures increasingly reflects a worrying reality in the context of accelerated global warming — which, by the way, is already being called global ebullition. This goes beyond explanation by natural climate variation or the effect of the phenomenon El Niño, one of the contributing factors to extreme heat. This warming has worried the scientific community, which is looking for explanations for this rapid increase in temperatures, going beyond the greenhouse effect of anthropogenic gases.
The fact is that Brazil is just following the trend. It is important to highlight that temperatures in the country have already reached up to 6 ºC above average in some areas, which has negatively impacted health, nature and even the economy, especially when it comes to agriculture. In other words, records seem to be breaking with each ing year and proof of this were the capitals themselves with measurements far above normal.
With unprecedented heat spikes, according to data from MetSouth, Brazil ended up ing the list of countries with the highest temperatures in the world, even if only for a short period due to the heat wave. However, the tendency is that, in the near future, it will remain fixed in the ranking.
