Earth had its second-warmest March on record with Antarctic sea ice shrinking to its second-lowest extent, the EU's climate monitoring agency said on Thursday.

"The month was jointly the second warmest March globally," said a report from the Copernicus Climate Change Service.

It said temperatures were above average over southern and central Europe and below average over most of northern Europe. Copernicus said Antarctic sea ice extent was the second lowest for March in the 45-year satellite data record, at 28 percent below average. In the north, meanwhile, Arctic sea ice extent was four percent below average and joint fourth lowest for March on record, though concentrations were above average in the Greenland Sea.
