«Although most of the macrophyte carbon is released back to the atmosphere in the same form that it is assimilated, carbon dioxide, some of it is actually exported to the ocean as dissolved carbon or released to the atmosphere as methane, a gas that has a warming potential 20 times larger than carbon dioxide,» said John Melack, a professor at the University of California, Santa Barbara.

The observed fact that temperatures increases slower over the oceans than over land demonstrates that the large heat capacity of the ocean tries to hold back the warming of the air over the ocean and produces a delay at the surface but nevertheless the atmosphere responds quit rapidly to increasing greenhouse gases.

There are also concerns that oceans, which currently absorb more than 90 percent of the extra heat being trapped by human greenhouse gas emissions, could eventually release some of that back to the surface, speeding up the surface temperature rise.

The Arctic is warming more than twice as fast as the rest of the planet, because as ice melts at the top of the world, there is less of it to reflect sunlight back into space, so more of it is absorbed by ocean waters; more absorbed sunlight means even warmer temperatures, which means more ice melt a circular process known as Arctic amplification.

Whereas PPM Data is immediate and accurately measurable and comparable to the «real world» be it back to human emissions, be it sources, be it sinks, be it ocean acidity, be it climate forcing long term and more than anything the dynamics of PPM is easily explained and communicated as a Definitive Yardstick or success or failure in meeting Goals (imho).

An article in Science back from January 24 showed that the ocean area required to take these kinds of projects sequester 30 % of our yearly emissions would be more than an order of magnitude larger than all ocean south of 50 degrees S. Definitely not worth it.

This warming is less than it will ultimately be, because the cool ocean surface holds back the warming — allowing more energy loss out the bottom than will ultimately be the case.

My very bad back of the envelope calculation says sea level can not rise more than 800 feet before the ocean boils.

Marine biological activity then transfers a bit more C to the deep ocean than cold, upwelling waters bring back up, such that the net sink to the deep ocean is about 1.6 GtC / yr, and much slower permanent removal in sediments.

But even when carbon dioxide does make its way out of the atmosphere, Earth's natural systems can release other carbon dioxide molecules that were previously stored in the oceans / land back into the atmosphere, making the full effect of carbon dioxide emissions on surface temperatures much longer than this 5 - 200 year average.

In looking at this of course, we must take into account that overall the thermal inertia and overall energy storage capacity of the troposphere is dwarfed by the oceans and far more variable than the oceans, so looking at the energy of the troposphere and comparing it to Earth's overall reservoir of non-tectonic energy is much like weighing the flee on a dog's back to see how much it adds to the weight of the dog.

The gradient will never be reduced to the point that the deep ocean is warmer than the atmosphere, so the heat can't come back up.

The ice normally reflects more heat and sunlight back into space than open ocean or bare ground, so when it is reduced, the Earth gets a small incremental heat flux that will result in an increase in temperatures.

Before you say it's the back radiation, I have to tell you that radiation from colder regions does not penetrate the warmer ocean surface more than a few nanometres.

The ocean surface layer is what directly matters, that contains somewhat more CO2 than the atmosphere (1,000 GtC vs. 800 GtC), but the chemical reactions in the ocean water push the equilibrium back, so that ultimately the surface water - air equilibrium is reached with a 1:9 partitioning between water and air, reverse and far away from the 50:1.

The current total of 300 GtC human emissions adds less than 1 % to the carbon reservoir in the deep oceans, and ultimately that is all what returns if everything is back in equilibrium.

C. warmer than it was with respect to the start of the industrial revolution, I believe that it would be necessary to use actual average global land - ocean surface temperature data (which would be imperfectly known that far back).

More than anything, this Grace data adds great credibility to the idea of filtering out these shorter - term ENSO effects in the shifts of water mass between ocean and land and back again.

The disappearance of sea ice could also contribute to global warming by causing more heat to be absorbed by the ocean rather than reflected back into space by ice, he says:

But anyway, we know none of the back radiation penetrates more than about 10 microns (because it is actually pseudo scattered and only slows radiative cooling) so to what temperature can the Sun's radiation warm that 20 metres of the ocean?

Ernst - Georg Beck, by assembling more than 90,000 pre-1958 measurements of atmospheric CO2 dating back to the nineteenth century, has shown rather large variations, including a major increase roughly coincident with a rise in ocean temperatures from 1920 to 1940 [Beck 2007].

«Precise measurements of temperature within the ocean confirm that the Earth is absorbing more energy from sunlight than it emits back to space, providing perhaps the strongest evidence to date that rising concentrations of greenhouse gases and other pollutants are the primary cause of the current global warming trend.

But the truth is that the ocean recirculates that extra load and, at some point, will release some of it back to the atmosphere, where it will keep raising temperatures, even if future carbon dioxide emissions were to be much lower than they are now.»

On an earlier thread I made a back - of - envelope calculation that, for the deep ocean to «suck» all the heat down from the surface, so that the sea surface layer and troposphere were nowhere more than 3C, the mean temperature of the deep ocean would need to increase only 0.4 C. Maybe someone could check this.
