Arctic warming

Warming of the ocean around Svalbard


Continued C02 and CH4 emissions added to what is already in the atmosphere are creating an energy imbalance. More heat is coming in than is going out. Most of the excess heat is going into the oceans. The Arctic Ocean temperature should not be 52.52 degrees southeast of Svalbard. There are huge amounts of frozen methane hydrates on the Arctic Ocean floor. 

"The image above shows that on June 8, 2015, sea surface temperatures as high as 11.4°C (52.52°F) were recorded to the south-east of Svalbard (a 9.8°C or 17.64°F anomaly), while sea surface temperatures as high as 7.4°C (45.32°F) were recorded to the west of Svalbard (a 3.5°C or 6.3°F anomaly). These spots where warm water comes to the surface give an indication of how high temperatures of the water are below the surface"  - Sam Carana

One consequence of the catastrophic warming of the ocean around Svalbard will be a much sooner blue-water event, where the very criminals that have caused this catastrophe will identify the loss of sea ice as an opportunity to drill and spill. The level of mendacity and psychopathy associated with going to the Arctic to search for oil and gas that patently cannot be burned is mind-dumbing. Shell petroleum is on the way there now knowing full well that they are instrumental in immolating the biosphere and much faster than most people realise.

  4. Thanks for your comments. I had changed over to moderated comments because of the quantity of spam. I have worked out how to do that now!
