SD: The extra heat in the ocean is «diluted» by their enormous heat capacity, so the changes in water temperature are mostly smaller than over land. (climatechangenationalforum.org)
The reasons clearly lie in the shift in the distribution of the accumulating heat in the ocean to greater depths with less remaining on the surface. (realclimate.org)
Many thanks for your response on the deep heat in the oceans. (bishop-hill.net)
