The climate system has continued to accumulate energy, for example energy accumulation in the oceans has caused the global mean sea level to continue rising. (metlink.org)
Warming of the atmosphere drives energy accumulation in the oceans through changing net IR up — until a new equilibrium is reached. (judithcurry.com)
You'd have to find some seriously exotic source of heat to explain the kind of energy accumulation seen across the planet's oceans, another subject that is explored in SkS threads. (skepticalscience.com)
