Summer 2014 Saw Warmest Ocean Temperatures Ever Recorded
2014-11-14 22:05:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Nature World: Summer 2014 saw the warmest ocean temperatures ever recorded, according to a new report, proving that global warming is not slowing down. But many people, including scientists, did think at one point that global warming had indeed taken a break. Greenhouse gas levels may have increased drastically in recent years, hitting a record high in 2013, but overall global tempratures have actually barely risen in the last 16 years, according to a recent study published in the journal Nature Geoscience...

Warming ocean temperatures may not bring rain to parched California
2014-09-05 02:09:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Reuters: The Pacific Ocean phenomenon called El Nino, which can lead to storms in the U.S. Southwest and other places, will likely start soon, but may not bring hoped-for relief to drought-parched California, U.S. government meteorologists said on Thursday. Scientists with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration said in a report the likelihood was increasing that El Nino, characterized by a warming of the ocean temperature in the eastern Pacific near the equator, would be weak this year. A...

Ocean temperatures spiked in 2013
2014-02-03 17:59:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Grist: Perhaps climate skeptics should be forced to walk the plank - so they can feel for themselves where so much of the globe`s extra heat is ending up. The mainstream media repeatedly uttered the false but reassuring-sounding phrase "global warming pause" last year, a reference to an unexpected decline in the rate at which land temperatures have been recently warming, but meanwhile temperatures in the world`s oceans were spiking. Just check out this graph from NOAA, which shows the rise in the...

Northeastern ocean surface temperatures at highest in 150 years: NOAA
2013-04-27 16:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Indian Country Today: Ocean-surface temperatures from Maine to North Carolina have shot to their highest in 150 years, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) announced on April 25. "Sea surface temperatures (SSTs) in the Northeast Shelf Large Marine Ecosystem during 2012 were the highest ever recorded in both long-term observational and short-term remote sensing time series," said NOAA in a statement containing data from the agency's Northeast Fisheries Science Center. "These exceptionally high...

Ocean temperatures give early warning of Indian malaria
2013-03-03 19:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
SciDevNet: Researchers have developed a model that allows malaria epidemics in arid northwest India to be predicted four months in advance, helping authorities prepare for them much earlier than before. The seasonal malaria outbreaks in the region are known to be driven by higher rainfall, which allows the mosquitoes that transmit the disease to breed, and can currently be forecasted up to around a month in advance. But a study published today (3 March) in Nature Climate Change has found a strong association...
