Ocean temperture records

[TyroneSlothrop]

I love our ocean dataset. It is accurate and the only one we got. Only a very irrational person could argue that it is all a crock.

This is who they link to in order to invalidate temperature record

Again no fucking data?

Just Google ocean temperature data fool.

I am overwhelmed by "JoNova".......its all moot now ...AGW has been destroyed Record-Breaking Hot Ocean Temperatures Are Frying The Great Barrier Reef

 

[TyroneSlothrop]

The Great Barrier Reef’s coral is dying, and it may never be the same again.

Last month, as historically high ocean temperatures bathed the waters around the Great Barrier Reef, the Australian government raised the coral bleaching threat to the highest level possible.

On an aerial reconnaissance trip from Cairns to Papua New Guinea, researchers observed the parts of the reef that are supposed to be the most pristine and vibrant. What they saw was chilling.

“This has been the saddest research trip of my life,” said Prof. Terry Hughes, convener of the National Coral Bleaching Taskforce. “Almost without exception, every reef we flew across showed consistently high levels of bleaching, from the reef slope right up onto the top of the reef. We flew for 4000km in the most pristine parts of the Great Barrier Reef and saw only four reefs that had no bleaching. The severity is much greater than in earlier bleaching events in 2002 or 1998.”

Records reveal robust ocean warming - physicsworld.com


Most ocean temperature measurements were collected by expendable bathythermographs (XBTs) – devices that have been dropped from ships since the 1960s. XBTs are designed to sink at a known rate while measuring and transmitting the water temperature back to the ship via two wires.

However, there are two problems with XBT data. First, the probes were normally launched from ships on routine passages – and therefore missed out on much of the Southern Ocean and other less-travelled waters. Second, the design of the XBT has changed over the years, and researchers have discovered that some probes do not actually fall as expected. This means that temperature versus depth data could be flawed.

About time I found what I was looking for, no thanks to the minions of the AGW cult

Bathythermograph - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


The true origins of the BT began in 1935 when Carl-Gustaf Rossby started experimenting. He then forwarded the development of the BT to his graduate student Athelstan Spilhaus, who then fully developed the BT in 1938[1] as a collaboration between MIT, Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI), and the U.S. Navy.[3] The device was modified during World War II to gather information on the varying temperature of the ocean for the U.S. Navy. Originally the slides were prepared "by rubbing a bit of skunk oil on with a finger and then wiping off with the soft side of one's hand,” followed by smoking the slide over the flame of a Bunsen burner.[4] Later on the skunk oil was replace with an evaporated metal film.[1]

Since water temperature may vary by layer and may affect sonar by producing inaccurate location results, bathothermographs (U.S. World War II spelling) were installed on the outer hulls of U.S. submarines during World War II.[5]

But their was a big problem


XBT Fall Rate BiasEdit
Since XBTs do not measure depth (e.g. via pressure), fall-rate equations are used to derive depth profiles from what is essentially a time series. The fall rate equation takes the form:

{\displaystyle z(t)=at^{2}+bt}

where, z(t) is the depth of the XBT in meters; t is time; and a & b are coefficients determined using theoretical and empirical methods. The coefficient b can be thought of as the initial speed as the probe hits the water. The coefficient a can be thought of as the reduction in mass with time as the wire spools off.

For a considerable time, these equations were relatively well-established, however in 2007 Gouretski and Koltermann showed a bias between XBT temperature measurements andCTD temperature measurements.[10]They also showed that this varies over time and could be due to both errors in the calculation of depth and in measurement of the temperature.

 

[Crick]

Yes. Depth rates were found to differ by up to 2% as one moved from equatorial water to polar water. These are all easily compensated for. Were you thinking that this was the source of the data showing a warming ocean? Were you thinking it was all an artifact?

Ha ha ha... you're funny.

What did they do in 1872 to get temperture readings at a depth of 900 meters?

Tie a thermometer to rope and an anchor, throw it overboard and pull it up real fast????????

Probably were smart enough to have a slot or valve that could be opened and closed via another line.

Doubt it, I don't think they were smart enough to realize it back then.

We are talking about common men, stuck on a ship for months on end..the scientist aboard that ship had to deal with young ones who we're bored to death, had to deal with pirates, and thinking to themselves " this guy wants us to stop and do what?"


Its human nature and physcolgy ..

In 1728, they got the speed of light to within a few percent. I think they were smart enough to open and close the door on a sample bucket in the 1800s.
