41.   Conditions were rough with a near-freezing surface temperature.

42.   During August and September, ocean surface temperatures reached near-record levels in many parts of the equatorial Pacific, it said.

43.   El Nino conditions continued to develop in the equatorial Pacific in May as ocean surface temperatures increased.

44.   In the current El Nino, sea surface temperatures in the eastern Pacific were approaching the highest on record.

45.   It is marked by cold sea surface temperatures in the eastern Pacific and brings heavy rain to much of Southeast Asia.

46.   Scientists say rising concentrations of heat-trapping gases in the atmosphere are warming the surface temperature of the Earth and disrupting weather patterns.

47.   She alighted into surface temperatures hovering just above freezing point and to fresh snow covering the landscape.

48.   Studies have disagreed on whether the warming would produce the El-Nino-like Pacific surface temperatures, he said.

49.   The computer simulation suggests that unrestrained global warming could set up the same kind of pattern in ocean surface temperatures, but as a more or less constant condition.

50.   The current La Nina started when surface temperatures in the tropical Pacific dropped rapidly in May and June.
