Increasing temperatures of the atmosphere and the surface of the earth are also warming the sea. Areas of low air pressure form over the overheated sea, which can turn into cyclones or even hurricanes even in moderate latitudes. Strong winds pick up desert sand, dust, black carbon, and other particles in North Africa, lift them high into the air, even over 3 or 4,000 meters, and push them northward. These heat wave phenomena are becoming more frequent and intense. In Mediterranean countries, the Alps and Central Europe, they cause high temperatures, poor visibility and an unhealthy environment. They cover the glaciers with a dark carpet, which further accelerates the melting and accelerated disappearance.
