Global Warming, er Climate Change is a National Security Threat


Quote:"The second image in the article is really the key.


The vertical blocks are avg. temperatures at increasing depths, i.e., the top left block is avg temperature at the surface in 1994, the block beneath that is the avg. temp at the next depth, (looks like 10-20 meters ish), and it continues like that in units of depths and blocks of time.

 
 

There is one glaring lie in that graph. The ARGO floats which measure temperature at depth, were deployed between 2000 and 2007. If you look at your graph, there is a big discontinuity around 2002. The measurements below the surface layer before 2002 were fabricated from a few non-representative measurements, and even ARGO was not very robust in 2002.

The global Argo dataset is not yet long enough to observe global change signals. Seasonal and interannual variability dominate the present 7-year globally-averaged time series. Sparse global sampling during 2004-2005 can lead to substantial differences in statistical analyses of ocean temperature and trend (or steric sea level and its trend, e.g. Leuliette and Miller, 2009). Analyses of decadal changes presently focus on comparison of Argo to sparse and sometimes inaccurate historical data. Argo's greatest contributions to observing the global oceans are still in the future, but its global span is clearly transforming the capability to observe climate-related changes.

ABOUT US
The Jungle Forums is the Jaguars' biggest fan message board. Talking about the Jags since 2006, the Jungle was the team-endorsed home of all things Jaguars.

Since 2017, the Jungle is now independent of the team but still run by the same crew. We are here to support and discuss all things Jaguars and all things Duval!
