New UN climate report, in addition to documenting that Earth's oceans are getting hotter and higher at a previously underestimated acc rat of acceleration, the report also discusses a relatively new phenomenon in the oceans: marine heat waves.
"It's sort of remarkable that prior to 2012 [or] 2013, nobody had thought about heat waves in the ocean," says Andrew Pershing, chief scientific officer at the Gulf of Maine Research Institute in Portland, Maine. "And then, in 2012 we had a huge event here in the Northwest Atlantic, and the Gulf of Maine was right at the center of it. It was a real surprise."

The abnormally hot water affected animals that live off the coast of Maine, including lobster and other creatures that are crucial to the local fishing economy. What's more, it quickly became clear that the state wasn't alone.
"Subsequently, these kind of heat wave events have kind of popped up all over the ocean," Pershing says. "We've actually had three major heat waves in the Gulf of Maine - 2012, 2016 and 2018 - and now we're looking at repeat heat waves in the northern Pacific; Australia's had some repeat heat waves. So it's really becoming a part of the conversation in oceanography."
"It's kind of an emerging issue," Barrett says. "The report finds that these heat waves have doubled in frequency since the 1980s, and are increasing in intensity."

That's a big deal for coastal communities whose economies rely on fish and other seafood.

Unsettling for anyone subject to cyclones.

Nobody thought about heat waves in the ocean prior to 2012, 2013.............BUT they have doubled since the 1980s...........how do we know they have doubled since the 1980s if nobody was thinking about them until 2012??? It was a real surprise in 2012...

Because back then, the occurrence was relatively rare.

Is somebodyelse asking that question in seriousness such that someone could take the time to answer? Or is he attempting to make a rhetorical point based on a belief that we don't have temperature data in the oceans that go back to the 1980s? Kind of hard to tell from his syntax.

I couldn't tell you- it's not worth trying to decipher that run-on mess of gobbleygook text he's always barfing out.


Seriously, is that like Fortran or something?

"The report notes that the oceans are getting more acidic, which could lead to mass extinction of marine organisms, especially animals with shells, such as oysters and clams."

I listened to an article on this, this morning. A little bit concerning ain't it.

Hahaha! Progs, taking their marching orders from a 16 y/o brainwashed dimwit now. You know what she will accomplish? Nothing. Not a thing. She is the latest Hogg, Sheehan, Avenatti, Cohen, who you use and flush down the toilet when their usefulness has passed. Pretty despicable that you'd do this to a 16 y/o, but you progs are not shy about being despicable.

I know, you're having a rough day. But I've got to hand it to you, when you go all in, you'll defend the indefensible until the bitter end.

No rough day here. Excuse me if I don't fall for these prog tricks (at least I hope for your sake it is a trick). Who is next for you guys? Joan of Arc? Going to attack the English?
