Heat earlier this decade.

early warning systems, and / or increased access to air conditioning for the U.S. population.182, 183 However, extreme
heat events remain a cause of preventable death nationwide.
While an exceptionally strong El Niño helped to boost temperatures
early in the year, most of the excess
heat has built up over
decades as greenhouse gases have accumulated in the atmosphere.
And as we learn from the Skeptical Science article I linked to
earlier, there is going to be a delay of «
decades» between the effects of the CO2 emissions in question (i.e., the
heating of the atmosphere due to the greenhouse effect) and a corresponding warming of the oceans.
The study finds that the rise in ocean
heat (and temperature) in recent
decades is far faster than anything seen
earlier in the Holocene, the period since the end of the last ice age.

Many of the projects we look at as being carbon - friendly (i.e. construction of a major green energy or clean transport project) are significantly less so since the big burst of carbon from construction, which happens at the start of the project, hangs around for
decades accumulating more
heat than
early LCAs accounted for (an abbreviated treatment of this concept is in Kendall, Chang & Sharpe, Environ.
Building on
earlier work, the climate model examined by Meehl et al (2011) & (2013) demonstrated that hiatus
decades (
decades in the model with little or no surface warming) occurred when anomalous
heat was being taken up by the deep ocean.
An
early ramp up with fully eight and a half
decades left to go in a Century that will certainly see substantial further increases in global
heat accumulation.
There are plenty of ways of looking at the surface air temperature record that all show no statistically significant change in trend from
earlier decades, so any study that concludes sensitivity is different just with the addition of the past
decade must be automatically suspect, and that's not even taking into account the
heat going into the oceans.
