Gulf will become more humid and hot as global temperatures rise, researchers say 14.01.2026

Researchers predict the Gulf region will face escalating humidity and heat due to rising global temperatures, with 2025 already ranking as the third-hottest year on record globally and approaching the critical 1.5°C warming threshold. The Middle East is experiencing warming at double the global average, leading to severe risks associated with increasing wet-bulb temperatures. This trend is attributed to greenhouse gas emissions and the influence of El Niño, raising concerns about potentially exceeding the Paris Agreement's temperature limits. The intensified heat and humidity in the Gulf are direct consequences of these global climatic shifts.
