This desert in North America has become the hottest place on earth, its a new temperature record that has recently been broken, it measured a whopping 80.8% Celsius, that's 177.4 Fahrenheit in 2023!
It was recorded by two satellites that showed the hottest land surface area was in The Sonoaran desert, Mexico beating the record recorded of 70.7c from the Lut desert in Iran, known as one of the remotest and inhospitable places on earth.
What is shocking about the new record is that the Sonaran desert, isn’t so remote, it borders the united states, and has made headlines for migrants crossing the desert to reach Mexico's northern border.
The Sonoaran desert is also a popular tourist destination with idealic beaches along its coasts.
Unlike the desolate and inhospitable Lut desert, the Sonoran desert is one of the most bio-diverse deserts of earth, its mountains and canyons provide rivers and water source for 2000 native plant species and 350 species of birds call this place home amongst many other migrating species.
In the last decades more and more people have been moving to the Sonoran desert, particularly in southwestern united states which is seeing some of the fastest population growth rates.
Infrastructure such as concrete buildings & paved roads are increasing surface temperatures therefore using air conditioning systems have become a necessity.
However its crazy to think that people have been living in this very hot region for thousands of years quite comfortably without electric powered AC. Even today only 16% percent of Mexicans have air conditioning units in stark contrast to its neighbor The USA where 94% households have AC.
This is because of an ingenious building techniques that we are going to explore in this video, we are going to visit a home in the Sonoran desert that stays really cool despite the record breaking temperature and we are going to take some temperature tests to see how effective it really is and you’ll be amazed by the results...!

@abadyr_ Месяц назад

Pro tip: When it's 25 C° inside and 45 C° outside, don't open the doors and windows. Open everything at night, and close them in mid-morning.

@LeafofLifeWorld Месяц назад

this is true but at the same time because the house has over hangs in front of the windows its actually creating an area of cool air in front of the house so even when you open the door and window you can feel a cool breeze as the heat from the top sucks in the cool air

@lm-pw9ul Месяц назад

At my place when it's 45°C outside, it's 50°C inside. The windows are facing West so they get direct sunlight in summer and get super hot starting from around 3pm and stays hot until late nights or early morning. Don't like to open windows because of dust, pollen and flies/insects. Some days can also get very humid.

@JCR_cande Месяц назад

Yes, I agree. Maintain all windows and doors closed when the highest temperatures, and open windows and the roof window at night to create natural ventilation. The hot air flows upwards, escape and force cool air to enter through the windows.

I grew up in California and visited many of the old Spanish missions there. Everything about the construction is designed to keep the buildings cool. They are usually painted white to reflect sunlight, and the walls are very thick and well insulated, which helps in preventing the heat of the sun from reaching the inside of the structure. The adobe bricks used to make the buildings, which are made with a cement mixed with straw, stay quite cool as well. The flooring inside is all made of stone, which also helps in staying cool, and the missions feature courtyards which are designed to maximize shade all day long. The windows are also built in a way so that the amount of sunlight coming in is minimized as well. I always noticed how cool it was inside those buildings. The downside is that they are, of course, quite dark inside.

@LeafofLifeWorld 14 дней назад

Thats very true and is a design from Muslims brought to Spain, this house was using all these principles except an inner court yard. This particular house was quite light and bright due to the south facing windows but the windows had an over hang to prevent direct sunlight penetrating inside, so it still kept it cool

kwa wrote, _"Ari temperatrure is what we use, not the temperature of the gound/floor surface."_ Perhaps it would benefit you to understand a bit more about thermodynamic. Ground, air, surface, material properties, etc., all contribute to the overall movement and storage of heat throughout a structure. Too many people oversimplify too many things in order to create an illusion that they *'know'* what they're talking about when, in fact, they do not.

@LeafofLifeWorld Месяц назад

@@RichardHarlosthere is more than one way to measure temperature, as long as thr two temperatures taken are at the same altitude we can compare the two.. " In meteorology, we commonly distinguish between air temperature (near the surface or in altitude),surface temperature, soil temperature and water temperature and temperature in altitude. In addition, it should be noted that temperature is highly dependent on altitude. On average, the air cools by about 1°C per 100m elevation increase. Therefore, it is important to know at which altitude the measuring station is located and at which height the temperature sensor is fixed. In this way, the altitude of the station and the height of the instrument relative to the ground can be considered correctly."

I told him that white paint made from lime.milk and vinegar was a better option for a dome. The paint is elastic and expands and at the same rate at which the dome dissipates heat. The color white reflects the light. However, the convexity of the dome refracts light which is much better. Sadly, within four years time he had died.

It makes me feel sad to think about the 10% of Americans who don’t have ac

@Jonathan-jo2xu 3 дня назад

It is sad that 90% of Americans believe they need AC. For thousands of years, we managed just fine without it. I spent the first 30 years of my life without it. Then, I moved somewhere where it was everywhere-in the house, in the car, at work. I too began to need it. It’s incredible how hot everything became. Additionally, in the winter, everything seemed colder, even though it was warmer in the winter and not much hotter in the summer. Interestingly enough, the area where I reside requires black asphalt roofs, which is absolutely ridiculous. It should be illegal to have black roofs in the South! Everybody loses except for the energy companies.

@bearnaff9387 Месяц назад

What else can be done to cool a house without conventional AC? Lots! If, during your construction, you're able to get use of a backhoe or digger, you can use it to dig a 1.5-2m(5-6ft) trench for 10-15m (30-50ft). Then you place a tunnel of rigid material down there, like concrete conduit. One end of the tunnel should end inside your home, on a lower level, and one end should terminate outside in a covered area protected from animals by mesh. The temperature down there should be notably lower than the daytime high temperature and you can use the air to cool your home either by pulling it in with a fan, or using thermal ventilation like in this dome. There also exist paints, that can be made in a garage lab, that can convert ambient heat into a specific wavelength of IR that our atmosphere is completely transparent to. What does this mean? It means that a surface coated in this paint can cool itself up to 10C (18F) IN DIRECT SUNLIGHT. It's not a huge amount of cooling, but it works all the time and can just be used as a nice, white paint. (It is fragile as a paint, and kinda expensive, so it will need a protective coating, but it still just sends almost 20F of heat zooming off into space without power.)

Domes are more earthquake resistant and a lot stronger than a flat roof. Very informative and useful video, Leaf of Life. I was in some strong earthquakes and saw a lot of flat roof buildings that collapsed. In fact I often wondered why churches with domes in summer were very cool compared to the temperatures outside, I just thought it was because they were large and dark, without many windows but actually they often had a lot of windows. Hopefully more people will try start building domes to cool their homes down naturally instead of using Air con which heats up the temperatures outside houses, offices and apartment buildings and can get dirty quickly and harbor some nasties. I always feel bad when I get an Uber driver on hot days and they have strong A.C. and a recurring cough or some kind of nasal problem, its so sad their job is making them sick. I also had a job with a horrible AC and no one wanted to open the window to get fresh air. I constantly had headaches and low energy. Great video yet again, your recent videos have been really good actually, much love Leaf of Life you seem to be working really hard on these videos they must be a lot of work, I hope millions and millions of people see this video and are inspired to build domes houses and use less AC which is very bad for the environment!

There are many useful ideas to help make a dwelling more livable in climatic extremes. But too often they come with an upfront price tag that people can't afford. I previously owned a double brick home with a tile roof in Australia that was way cooler inside, had no AC, just ceiling fans. But that form of construction is considerably more expensive than common alternatives.

Does this architectural cooling work as effectively in humid areas, or is it mainly for deserts? Thank you.

@LeafofLifeWorld 28 дней назад

it will work better in deserts but it can work in humidity but just not as affective, still every little helps

Not so good for humid climate, although helpful. For humid weather you’ll need big opening and breezes for cooling.

Can these domes work in hot and humid areas too?

the FLOOR is 25 C° ... what's the air temperature , which is what's really important to humans, electronics, and overall comfort? Everyone knows hot air rises and cool air sinks... to the floor.

As explained in the video the hot air rises far above the head up into the dome and circulates out to the high window, the hot outside air creates a funnel sucking cool air out, I suggest rewatching the video or complete watching it to understand how it works

Measuring heat in direct sun and by the ground which is raising and radiating heat is wrong as is checking temperature by the floor indoors for the opposite reason.

Where I live at present outside temperature is 27°C,humidity 56% and UV extreme. It's impossibly to sit in the Sun for few seconds;it's burning hot. I see else where in the world now temperatures are above 50°C can any one tell me how people survive?
