sea surface temperatures — but the 2015 event started with
warmer - than - average temperatures not only in the Pacific but also in in the Atlantic and Indian Oceans.

sea surface temperatures, previous coral bleaching events, and studied
how corals responded to different seawater
warming conditions.
Understanding
how layers of air insulate the
surface of glaciers, for example, is vital to making accurate estimates of
how fast they will melt — and
sea levels will rise — as the Earth
warms under its blanket of greenhouse gases.
Sea surface temperatures were
warmer this past summer also; I forget
how many standard deviations the temperature was off the trend, but it was definitely anomalous.
Ocean
surfaces have
warmed considerably over the last few years, and since oceans cover roughly tw0 - thirds of the globe's area, it is reasonable to examine
how sea surface temperature evolution has played into the short - term evolution of GMST.
We must be able to discuss

warm water incursions that lay below the
surface for 15 years can affect
sea ice.
Given an actual imbalance, you can estimate
how much further the
sea surface will need to
warm to remove it — this is the

sea surface temperatures
warm first in the Atlantic, then in the Indian Ocean, and then in the western Pacific.
Its hard to see
how the oceans can be
warming dramatically due to anthropogenic causes if the
sea surface temperature (controlled for ENSO, ENSO afteraffects etc) is actually relatively stable.
A new methodology (combined Pacific variability mode) is developed to objectively analyze
how climate change may be synergistically interacting with Pacific
sea surface temperature associated
warm season teleconnections in North America.
For more than 3 1/2 years, I've been presenting
how sea surface temperature data indicates that ENSO is the primary cause of the
warming of the past 3 decades.
They explain
how, overall, Antarctic
sea ice cover (frozen
sea surface), for separate reasons involving wind changing in relation to the location of certain
warming sea water currents, shows a slight upward trend, though it also shows significant melting in some areas.
How hurricanes develop also depends on how the local atmosphere responds to changes in local sea surface temperatures, and this atmospheric response depends critically on the cause of the change.23, 24 For example, the atmosphere responds differently when local sea surface temperatures increase due to a local decrease of particulate pollution that allows more sunlight through to warm the ocean, versus when sea surface temperatures increase more uniformly around the world due to increased amounts of human - caused heat - trapping gases.25, 26,27
