Given that, you don't need a fancy computer model or an Argo buoy to tell you that the future will be warmer.

When Dr. Layman released his 2006 paper initially it appeared that this was confirmed by the Argo buoy data sets; however, in 2007 it was discovered that upwards of 7 % and later determined to be nearly 17 % of the Atlantic Argo deployment had pressure sensor issues.

Even though the Argo buoy data demonstrates a increase in SST's and require error correction for the pressure sensors I have not seen significant data suggesting that there is any heating at depth.

This paper uses Argo buoy data to calculate ocean heat down to 2000 metres depth.

However, there have been teething problems with the Argo buoys experiencing pressure sensor issues that impose a cooling bias on the data.

Climate change skeptics often highlight certain scientific results as a means of confusing this issue, and that appears to be the case with Mr. Gunter's description of our recent results based on data from Argo buoys.

This would be true if ARGO buoys were independent observations of the same quantity,....»

So you agree with the main point that multiple argo buoys do not reduce the uncertainty.

Thus 3,000 ARGO buoys do not give 3,000 independent estimates of the ocean heat content at a particular time; each observation gives a single estimate of the temperature at a particular location and depth.

This would be true if ARGO buoys were independent observations of the same quantity, that is, independent samples drawn on the same population.

Another interesting factoid is that the highest SST measured by ARGO buoys is also right around 34.4 C. High readings cluster at 30C like there's almost a brick wall at that temperature with rare departures above it to a maximum of a bit under 35C.

Even on the accurate ARGO buoys error margins are probably not a lot less than 0.1 C. GRAPH UPDATED *

The sudden change in trend when switching to the more accurate ARGO buoys would suggest that the warming trend of the 1990s was exaggerated.

That is not the same lost heat, however, that Trenberth was looking for, for that one was eaten up by the Argo buoys.

Is the ocean sequestering heat deep below where the ARGO buoys measure water temperature?

Actually the ARGO buoys are good down to millikelvins.

The Argo buoys used to show significant cooling up until recently.

A funny detail in these commedies is that, while the Argo buoys showed cooling, they were blaming it on the melting ice.

Smokey (09:38:04): Early Argo buoys were subject to major problems with pressure sensors — which meant that temperature readings were not being taken at the depths they thought they were collecting it them at.

Measurement of that heat has improved greatly in recent decades thanks largely to the growing array of Argo buoys.

The most astounding thing to that viewer was the amount of hard evidence presented, especially the number of weather balloons and Argo buoys that collected data.

Source: Levitus 2009 There are, however, disputes about the accuracy of Argo buoys and expendable measuring devices dropped into the sea, and the reporting of temperatures down to only 700 metres.

Argo buoys come to the surface once every ten days.

Mention of significant regional difference may suggest more abject cherry - picking...» ANSWER / QUESTION: does this insult refer to the observations of Argo buoys collated by the Scripps Institution (figure 13 A)?!

The measurements from the 3000 oceanic ARGO buoys since 2003 may suggest a slight decrease of the oceanic heat content between the surface and a depth 700 m with very significant regional differences.

[snip] As it is a known fact argo buoys were adjusted because were showing a too pronounced cooling of the seas which didn't agree with their «models».

I wonder how an increase in subterranean volcanic activity might register in ARGO buoys between 700 and 2000m?

Conveniently this would largely occur under the permanent sea ice in the Weddell sea, whither the Argo Buoys goeth not.

While measurements of deep - ocean temperatures existed further back in the past, they were taken only in limited locations until 1999, when Argo buoys were widely deployed.

Don you DO realize that those heat calculations are just that: calculations and there wasn't a way to actually sample ocean heat content until the ARGO buoys correct?

The data are what they are - we've measured the deep ocean warming, including with reliable instruments on Argo buoys for close to a decade now.

Curry wrote that it «seems rather ironic, since this is the period where there is the greatest coverage of data with the highest quality of measurements — ARGO buoys and satellites don't show a warming trend.»

Ocean heat content from the Argo buoys do not get much prominence because they are not on message — cherry picked out.

Or based on the Argo sea buoys, the current rate is... For this we need something that all side agree we can measure accurately.

Since around 2000, a network of buoys called the Argo floats have been collecting more accurate global ocean data, so more recent measurements of the southern hemisphere are more reliable.

Another question (actual question, not rhetorical) is: If you had two ARGO floats connected by a rigid 10 meter pole so that they would have to travel together, up, down, and sideways, and the pair traveled the ocean doing the normal ARGO mission, would the data from the two buoys track within + / - 0.005 C?

NASA thought this to be erroneous, so they simply removed from the data set those buoys that were showing the greatest amount of cooling, and hey presto ARGO suggested ocean warming.
