During that same period, average annual rainfall in New South Wales declined by 3.6 inches (92 millimeters).3 Scientists think the decline in autumn rainfall in southeast Australia since the late 1950s may be partly due to increases in heat - trapping gases in Earth's atmosphere.3, 14 Major bushfires over southeast Australia are linked to the positive phase of an ocean cycle called the «Indian Ocean Dipole» — when sea surface temperatures are warmer than average in the western Indian Ocean, likely in response to global warming.1ocean cycle called the «Indian Ocean Dipole» — when sea surface temperatures are warmer than average in the western Indian Ocean, likely in response to global warming.1Ocean Dipole» — when sea surface temperatures are warmer than average in the western Indian Ocean, likely in response to global warming.1Ocean, likely in response to global warming.15, 16
Steve Fitzpatrick says: «It is an real contribution to link the ENSO to the AMO (this gives the AMO a more solid rational for influencing global temperatures), but it is I think unwise to suggest that ENSO driven cycles are (rather than could possibly be) responsible for most of the observed ocean surface warming since 1900.»
It is an real contribution to link the ENSO to the AMO (this gives the AMO a more solid rational for influencing global temperatures), but it is I think unwise to suggest that ENSO driven cycles are (rather than could possibly be) responsible for most of the observed ocean surface warming since 1900.
After that you claimed «HOW you will measure the immeasurable», and I pointed out that the link I already provided was measuring the temperature of the oceans and finding a warming trend.
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.18, 25,26,27 So the link between hurricanes and ocean temperatures is complex.
The synchronous and multiregional scale of this change and the recent increase in Arctic air and ocean temperatures suggest that these changes are linked to climate warming.
Ocean / atmosphere teleconnections provide a plausible causative link between hemispheric - scale warm temperatures and drought in the Southwest during the medieval period.
Towards the end of his presentation he added: «Some research suggests global warming is linked to rising ocean and sea surface temperatures in the tropical Atlantic and the Gulf of Mexico — which may have an impact on hurricane intensity.
As shown in the above linked essay, there is nothing in the ocean heat content data or satellite - era sea surface temperature data to indicate that manmade greenhouse gases have had any impact on the warming of the global oceans.
