Web update: May 2014

This figure shows changes in ocean heat content between 1955 and 2013. Ocean heat content is measured in joules, a unit of energy, and compared against the 1971–2000 average, which is set at zero for reference. Choosing a different baseline period would not change the shape of the data over time. The lines were independently calculated using different methods by three agencies: the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), Australia’s Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO), and Japan Meteorological Agency’s Meteorological Research Institute (MRI/JMA). For reference, an increase of 5 units on this graph (5 x 1022 joules) is equal to approximately 100 times the total amount of energy used by all the people on Earth in a year. 4

Key Points

• In three different data analyses, the long-term trend shows that the oceans have become warmer since 1955 (see Figure 1).
• Although concentrations of greenhouse gases have risen at a relatively steady rate over the past few decades (see theAtmospheric Concentrations of Greenhouse Gasesindicator), the rate of change in ocean heat content can vary from year to year (see Figure 1). Year-to-year changes are influenced by events such as volcanic eruptions and recurring ocean-atmosphere patterns such as El Niño.

looks different to me. Trenberth wanted the volcanic eruptions to show, so they did.

the actual conversion from OHC to temperature is enlightening. at the 2000m level we are talking thousandsths

The so called "Actual data" is a DENIER!!!!! and needed to be adjusted to show how CO2 was raising temperature, melting the caps, etc blah blah blah
