warming.
As a consequence, their
results are strongly influenced by the low increase in observed
warming during the past decade (about 0.05 °C / decade in the 1998 — 2012 period compared to about 0.12 °C / decade from 1951 to 2012, see IPCC 2013), and therewith possibly also by the incomplete coverage
of global temperature observations (Cowtan and
Way 2013).
The
global warming denier blogs, where this issue first came up, seem to think that I was being critical
of the I.P.C.C. report in the same
way as seen from their perspective, and,

results elsewhere; in short,
as Salinger said, «It's already happening and will get worse.»
As a
result of the significant scientific effort to date, aided by public concern, models simulating climate change have gained considerable skill... There will be many scientific and technical challenges along the
way, but the hope is that simulations
of the
global environment will be able to maximise the number
of people around the world who can adapt to, and be protected from the worst impacts
of,
global warming.

A wide range
of human activities affect marine biodiversity both in direct
ways, such
as exploitation by fisheries, habitat loss due to dredging, filling, and other construction influences, fishing gear impacts, and pollution, and in less direct
ways, including effects
of global change
resulting in acidification,
warmer waters, and coastal inundation.
Last year was the hottest since records began and with an El Nino now under
way the
warm surface waters
of the Pacific are releasing heat into the atmosphere with the
result 2015 is likely to break last year's record and the
global average surface temperature could jump by
as much
as 0.1 degree this year alone bring
global surface temperatures increases to 1 degrees or half
way to the UN
global limit.
