]The air temperature in the Antarktika continent broke record by 20.75 degrees. Brazilian scientists in Seymour Island are not yet confirmed by the World Meteorology Organization of the temperature recorded on February 9, but in the last period, it is noted that it increases concerns for global warming along with other measurements showing the temperature of the continent rise. Brazilian scientist Carlos Schaefer noted that the value of this temperature is not achieved with a long-term measurement, so it will not be used in the temperature trend work. Schaefer added that this temperature value is the beginning of a change. [[T][4]

The possibility of increase in the sea level]

]According to the data received from the World Meteorology Organization; Antarctic temperature averages increased about 3 degrees in the last 50 years, and 87 percent of the frosts on the western coast were withdrawn. With the influence of global warming, the melts were accelerated over the last 12 years. On the other hand, scientists emphasize that the acceleration of the melting in the South Pole is dangerous, in the coming years there is a warning that the rise in the sea level will increase at least 3 meters.
