Whatever happened to all the climate refugees?
A couple of hydrogen bombs ought to calm Big Red down! /s;)

Incidentally, the umm, article which is the subject of this thread, gives a whole new meaning to the phrase "Hide the decline" doesn't it?
Cheers!

========================================
True enough!
That general issue did come to mind after I made my original post.
But, when contemplating whether that’s relevant or not the question “What percentage of the world’s oceans have a surface temperature below 39F and for what percentage of the year?” has to be answered.
This new excuse is based on condition that warm water sinks.
“The researchers says this slow-moving current could continue to divert heat into the deep seas for another decade.”
Secondly, with the west-to-east weather in the northern hemisphere the Atlantic current does not affect US temperatures. So US land temperatures should not reflect the Atlantic’s ‘sinking warm water’.
Most of all they’re mum on the upper-atmospheric temperature readings which, coincidentally, are also lower.
So they’re just grasping at whatever they can to rationalize lower temperatures within their AGW modeling.
They’re crooks and should be subject to civil and criminal prosecution for dishonesty.
Computer modeling is their gold mine. They can always claim their models were wrong rather admit they were wrong and lied. It provides them cover for scientific and professional dishonesty.
I hope not, but unfortunately it does.
The BIGGEST determinator of global warming is the Pacific thermocline.
And, AFAIK, it has changed little (maybe 7 feet) since 1900.
