Climate change: How do we know?
<< Previous | Next >> See original article here. The Earth's climate has changed throughout history. Just in the last 650,000 years there have been seven cycles of glacial advance and retreat, with the abrupt end of the last ice age about 7,000 years ago marking the beginning of the modern climate era — and …
The oceans are warming so fast, they keep breaking scientists’ charts
<< Previous | Next >> NOAA once again has to rescale its ocean heat chart to capture 2014 ocean warming Wow, was this a bad year for those who deny the reality and the significance of human-induced climate change. Of course, there were the recent flurry of reports that 2014 surface temperatures had hit their …

Antarctic Bottom Water Warming and Freshening
<< Previous | Next >> Abstract Freshening and warming of Antarctic Bottom Water (AABW) between the 1980s and 2000s are quantified, assessing the relative contributions of water-mass changes and isotherm heave. The analysis uses highly accurate, full-depth, ship-based, conductivity–temperature–depth measurements taken along repeated oceanographic sections around the Southern Ocean. Fresher varieties of AABW are present …

Not only are ocean surface waters getting warmer, but so is water 1,500 feet below the surface.
This is an example of how the prevailing narrative, anthropogenic global warming due to atmospheric CO2, is the only way that our generation can comprehend global warming. However, it tells us that the ocean warms the atmosphere, not the opposite.
Surprising Depth to Global Warming’s Effects
The writers have the mindset of the prevailing narrative: Atmospheric warming due to anthropogenic CO2 emissions is the cause of global warming. However, their findings contradict the conventional wisdom.
Bottom Water Warming in the North Pacific Ocean
Masao Fukasawa, Howard Freeland, Ron Perkin, Tomowo Watanabe, Hiroshi Uchida & Ayako NishinaNature volume 427, pages 825–827 (2004) Cite this article Abstract Observations of changes in the properties of ocean waters have been restricted to surface1 or intermediate-depth waters2,3, because the detection of change in bottom water is extremely difficult owing to the small magnitude of the …
