Standard quantum theory can explain nearly all of these variations, but in 2015, new data released by the European Space Agency's Planck spacecraft revealed evidence of small anomalies in the background radiation. (discovermagazine.com)
«Importantly, other smaller anomalies are now sufficient to cause bleaching, so as climate change continues, coral bleaching events are occurring more and more frequently.» (carbonbrief.org)
At this point, the NERP may also generate cyclones, pumping saltier water to the surface and creating small anomalies in sea surface salinity. (eos.org)
