We can check the current SST and see that this matches what is going on currently, except for the cold region near 50N 25W, which was there not too long ago, but has recently disappeared, so we appear to be in a phase of high deep - water convection in the North Atlantic.

One point I would make is that the relationship between large hurricanes and SSTs as such will always be a little fuzzy since the presence of warm water at depth seems to pay a large role in storm intensification (as with Katrina when it crossed the Loop Current).

Even if there is equal warming in the tropics, but the heat is not dissipated to the poles fast enough by the ocean currents, the area of high SSTs will increase and more heat will dissipated by other means like TC's.

But today's anomaly, SST [2005]-- SST [1961 - 1990], depends on both the GW trend in the mean a and the oscillation, in which case the current anomaly is influenced by GW.

Ocean currents sometimes mix and sometimes stratify the signals from different parts of the oceans, but since they, too, can change with season, with wind direction and velocity, and with changes in THC / MOC, they also create variations in SST.

The different ice areas in and around the Arctic behave differently to oceanic currents, local SST, land boundaries, weather systems, and wind.

They probably reckon that the east coast current which is holding such high SSTs isn't going to allow much change before the end of the month but it will be interesting to see how smart they are.

Because GISTEMP, NCDC and HadCRUT3 are all using current generation SST datasets, and HadCRUT4 is using a next generation SST product with additional bias corrections.

This study shows that a weaker surface ocean current system produces colder coastal SST's along the Atlantic coast of Florida, thereby reducing the length and the total seasonal accumulation of rainfall in the wet season of Peninsular Florida relative to the simulation in which these currents are stronger.

Current Operational SST Anomaly Charts — Office of Satellite and Product Operations — 2014.

http://www.climate4you.com/index.htm I think we we should be concerned about the decline in SST of the southern ocean which carries the worlds largest current (ACC)-RRB-.

Relatively clear skies in the central and eastern tropical Pacific [during a La Niña] allow solar radiation to enter the ocean, apparently offsetting the below normal SSTs, but the heat is carried away by Ekman drift, ocean currents, and adjustments through ocean Rossby and Kelvin waves, and the heat is stored in the western Pacific tropics.

We can then look at current presentations over at Berkeley Earth to understand their mindset and decide why they chose to integrate this particular SST record to create a land + sea dataset.

One recent study suggests that climate change favors an SST pattern in the North Pacific that increases the incidence of the atmospheric circulation pattern responsible for the current drought.

Figure: Monthly SST anomalies 1920 — 2016, 12 - month smoothed, in two regions indicated in the inset: the California Current System (CCSTA) and the tropical Pacific (NINO34, the NINO3.4 ENSO index region).

It's very clear (thanks to Steve M, Willis etc) that there are issues with both but given the current hyped claim by the «warmers» that the past effects of man - caused global warming have largely been masked by the warming of the oceans and that unless we reduce CO2 emissions now that we won't be able to mitigate future global warming when this «stored heat» eventually comes back out of the oceans and leads to catastrophic effects, I'm very interested in getting to the punchline of this debate on SSTs.

While there is evidence of a persistent relationship between periods of aridity during the mid-Holocene and the MCA, as both are associated with increases in radiation and cooler SST in the eastern Pacific [64], climate simulations suggest that current forcing by increased GHG may produce an opposite oceanic response in the future [65].

These changes in tropical Pacific Ocean SSTs over the past millennium have often been associated with internal variability of the ocean - atmosphere system [19,27,53,54] that may not be accurately represented in current climate models.

Our study stresses the importance of those internal connections between tropical Pacific Ocean SSTs, the ENSO system, and the American Southwest hydroclimatic conditions and supports the contention that: (1) internal variability of the ocean - atmosphere system may not be accurately represented in current global climate models, and (2) enhanced variability as a result of these stochastic events should be further considered.

We also generated current and projected future temperature maps, which we compared with sea surface temperature (SST) data from the 1980s.

Given the extreme low current sea ice extent and the positive SST anomalies, a stronger decline might be expected.

Also, Judith tweeted earlier today about a paper covering the biases in SST and current plans to improve the entire effort.

[*) Another contributing factor to a dominantly positive phase for the NAO index is current and expected SST anomaly, with relatively cold waters west of the Azores, favouring high pressure build - up there, and relatively warm waters off the US - Canadian east coast, favouring northerly Atlantic depression formation (especially during offshore winds).]

Why are these two bits of the same current having completely different SST signals, and what agent is responsible for the change???? Conclusion: GW is a chain reaction caused by the human effects upon evapotransportation from the Nile flood plains into the AEW arena............ END OFF DISCUSSION

Current global climate models suggest that the water vapor feedback to global warming due to carbon dioxide increases is weak but these models do not fully resolve the tropopause or the cold point, nor do they completely represent the QBO [Quasi Biennial Oscillation], deep convective transport and its linkages to SSTs, or the impact of aerosol heating on water input to the stratosphere.

From the late 1970s the Leeuwin Current has become weaker and the SSTs in the Leeuwin Current have risen by about 0.6 degrees C since the 1960s.

This suggests that, when the adjustments implied by historical changes in measurement techniques and data sources are properly applied, the past SST record will end up cooler on the whole relative to current temperatures, and will also provide an even better fit to climate models.

Since at current atmospheric pressure the energy required to provoke evaporation at SST (int) is always less than the energy extracted from SST (int) by evaporation in the form of latent heat the net outcome of all the reactions in SST (int) is always cooling.

The results shown here are based on the current version of the UK Met Office Hadley Centre SST data set (HadSST2; ref.
