However, scientists warn that it is a sign of &nbsp;the long-term rising temperature trend in the world&#039;s oceans, which have absorbed the overwhelming majority of the excess heat from recent decades of warming.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The latest record temperature occurs at the end of a three-year-long La Nina weather pattern in the Eastern Pacific. With an El Nino weather system expected to take over in the Pacific later this year, surface water temperatures in the Eastern Pacific&nbsp;region will rise, and global average sea surface temperature may further increase.<\/p>\n<p>The NOAA data is the latest sign of rising temperatures in upper ocean waters.
