In 2013, a monstrous marine heatwave known as "The Blob" developed off the coast of Alaska... At one point, a buoy bobbing atop the ocean near Oregon detected frightening jumps in temperature of up to seven degrees Celsius in less than an hour...We need to recognize that burning fossil fuels is pushing ocean ecosystems to their limits. With Earth's oceans having now absorbed about 90 percent of the excess heat from global warming, marine heatwaves like The Blob are 20 times more likely to happen.

Also, I have never understood why the sea floor of deep oceans are not the same temperature as deep mine shafts.
South Africa has the deepest mines in the world. At 10,000 feet, the walls of a mine at that level are 150 degrees F. They need to use tons of ice water every hour to cool the air enough for men to work down there.
The average depth of Earth's oceans is 10,000 feet. I have never understood why the sea floor is not radiating 150 degree F heat into the ocean above it.
I actually read the article. They don’t have any real evidence but they have models. Great. Their “model’s are saying the oceans store heat at the bottom. Makes perfect sense as long as you ignore the fundamental fact heat rises.
More catastrophes looming, we will all die......give us more money to do research, build more models and create more scare articles.
Science blinded by $$$$$$$
They key takeway here is “give up your filthy, nasty cars to save the planet.”
Yeah, lotta apophenia in that one! The results of indoctrination over education.
Someone should tell Clare Watson that the Chinese and the Indians are building coal power plants like there's no tomorrow.
And also tell her to shut her ignorant yap, and get in the kitchen and make me a sammich.
The key take away for me was the author is a complete fkng moron...
Ah ha, my loquacious weatherman Bastardi is right again.
Wait another 20 years, and they’ll discover the earth’s core is molten lava. Science huh?
I’m not a scientist but I think water that deep responses differently than solids like rocks. The carbon dioxide that great deeps turn into a kind of dry ice too.
Could also rocks are closer to the Earth’s mantle.
But don’t take my wode on it, I only got a high school science education.
Thanks for the new word, Chad!
According to the Merriam-Webster dictionary...
Apophenia is the tendency to perceive a connection or meaningful pattern between unrelated or random things, such as objects or ideas.
When did the earth’s core stop being molten lava?
Water dissolving and water removing
There is water at the bottom of the ocean
Under the water, carry the water
Remove the water from the bottom of the ocean
But I will need a grant to further explore this hypothesis.
Water is most dense at 4 degrees Celsius and thus sinks to the bottom of the ocean. Water warned by the heat of the earth’s crust rises.
“Of course - volcanic activity, sea floor spreading, and smoker vents have almost NOTHING to do with the excess heat”
Any unexplained temp variations MUST be blamed on GW. That’s the rule. The temp anomaly and its effects happened in 2013-2016, why report it now?
Scientists discover intense ignorance lurking at (FILL IN THE BLANK).
A blob of heat lurking at the bottom of the ocean??
Is this the well known scientific principal where warmer water falls to the bottom of colder water?
I actually read a similar story a few years ago. The warmer water was supposedly ‘trapped’ at the bottom of the ocean. How? Warm or cold, it’s liquid. It will go where it wants, and warm water wants to rise.
It’s the same old pattern: when the public begins to learn how the scam artists have manipulated data from one source, they quickly find another source to manipulate in order to keep the global warming/climate change narrative going. Oh, and keep the money flowing as well. If they knew as much as they claim, there would be one or two models and they would be accurate. Instead, they produce multiple models none of which are accurate.
That would be a once in a lifetime grant.
I live in Seattle, and we definitely talked about The Blob.
2013 was one of our warmest years ever.
Of course, the author forgot to mention that 2013 was a huge El Nino year.
The southwest Pacific Ocean pumps all its warm water to Alaska and the USA Pacific northwest.
Totally impossible unless it is an error of the buoy or vulcanism at depth.
