Do deaths from the sea by the ocean become hotter?

New research published by US scientists shows that oceans are warming faster than people imagine, explaining why storms are becoming more intense.

This perceived delay also means that we have less time to correct the mistake with "Mother Nature" by limiting CO2 emissions and causing the greenhouse effect.

New research does not directly measure ocean temperatures. Instead, scientists measured the amount of gas, especially oxygen and CO2, that have escaped the ocean in recent decades and entered the atmosphere when it began to heat up.

This method provides scientists with a reliable indicator of ocean temperature change because it reflects the basic nature of the liquid when heated.

This is the same as when you leave a Coca-Cola can with the lid in the sunlight, it will soon lose its gas.

Over the past 25 years, the oceans on our planet retain 60% more heat than previously thought scientists, Laure Resplandy, a geologist at Princeton University. (USA), the surprising research leader was announced October 31 in Nature magazine.

This unexpected finding shows that a large amount of energy has been retained by the oceans for decades without human knowledge. It is estimated that the oceans absorb 8 times more heat than the energy consumed worldwide in the same year.

"We thought there was no significant warming of oceans and atmosphere with the amount of carbon dioxide released. But we were completely wrong. The planet is warmer than we thought. The reality was hidden because "The scientist doesn't get the right sample. The warmth is right in front of the ocean," said Resplandy.

Before 2007, when the international program used floats to study the temperatures of deployed oceans, shortages and conjectures made scientists puzzled about the warming of the oceans.

The more warm the sea, the more heat originates from the sun being trapped in the earth's atmosphere, instead of escaping into space.The reason is that CO2 emitted from industrial activities causes heat to be trapped in the lower atmosphere .

Rapid warming oceans mean sea levels will rise, the amount of heat in the ocean will be transferred to locations that are facing the effects of warming climate, such as tropical reefs. and ice shelves in Greenland and Antarctica.
