Robust warming of the global upper ocean
John M. Lyman,John M. Lyman,Simon A. Good,Viktor Gouretski,Masayoshi Ishii,Gregory C. Johnson,Matthew D. Palmer,Doug Smith,Josh K. Willis +8 more
TL;DR: XBT data constitute the majority of the in situ measurements of upper-ocean heat content from 1967 to 2002, and it is found that the uncertainty due to choice of XBT bias correction dominates among-method variability in OHCA curves during the 1993–2008 study period.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The evolution of ocean temperature measurement systems is presented with a focus on the development and accuracy of two critical devices in use today (expendable bathythermographs and conductivity-temperature-depth instruments used on Argo floats).
Journal ArticleDOI
An imperative to monitor Earth's energy imbalance
K. von Schuckmann,Matthew D. Palmer,Kevin E. Trenberth,Anny Cazenave,Anny Cazenave,Don P. Chambers,Nicolas Champollion,James Hansen,Simon A. Josey,Norman G. Loeb,P. P. Mathieu,Benoit Meyssignac,Martin Wild +12 more
TL;DR: The current Earth's energy imbalance (EEI) is mostly caused by human activity and is driving global warming as mentioned in this paper, and the absolute value of EEI represents the most fundamental metric defining the status of global climate change, and will be more useful than using global surface temperature.
Journal ArticleDOI
Causes of the rapid warming of the North Atlantic ocean in the mid 1990s
TL;DR: In the mid-1990s, the subpolar gyre of the North Atlantic underwent a remarkable rapid warming, with sea surface temperatures increasing by around 1°C in just 2 years as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: In this article, a multi-reanalysis ensemble is used to estimate the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the ocean state and to estimate uncertainty levels.
