I believe the Kelvin which is the absolute temperature scale, is the SI temperature scale, but Celsius is the commonly used metric system measure of temperature. For 0° C, the Kelvin temperature is approx 273 K. For each degree change in Kelvin is equal to a degree Celsius change.
Yes kelvin is a si base unit. Kelvin is a fundamental unit of SI for thermodynamic temperature.
The basic unit of temperature is the degree Celsius (°C) in the International System of Units (SI).
The SI unit of temperature is the Kelvin. It's the same size as the Celsius degree.
