“The study is still the first to confirm that the ocean is warming using a method independent of direct ocean temperature measurements.”

It’s like determining if the turkey in the oven is done by how good it smells. Sure, the smell of burning flesh is distinctive and you know that it is too hot. But it takes a temperature probe below the surface of the skin to determine if it’s cooked all the way through to the inside.
Satellites can only probe surface and give accurate measurements of the daily and seasonal changes. It takes an actual temperature thermometer to determine ocean temperature at deeper depth. Which is fairly stable and unchanging below 100 m / 300 feet, over 80% of the ocean.
The temperature of the deep ocean is a -3.5 Celsius, below freezing temperature freshwater. (if the cold water below a 2000 ft depth was circulated to the surface, fresh water of humidity condensation could be collected cheaply to provide drinking water for citys)
Another way to monitor ocean temperature is the volume it expands when heated. If the ocean was to rise 1° in temperature, costal areas/all of Florida would be underwater.
Water is always a method of cooing, it is the most common cooling medium that we know of. In the atmosphere, water vapor can act as a blanket slowing down heat loss, pre-venting longwave radiation from escaping into space. It is never a source of heat, nor generates heat. The arrival of a storm always coincides with the loss of temperature.
In other words, ocean evaporation cools the planet. It does not absorb the heat so much as it removes the heat by evaporation, rises from the ocean and forms clouds which prevents more heat from reaching the ground as a “feedback loop”. The more the ocean heats up, the more heat is prevented from reaching the ground… Everywhere.

He shut down this climate change foolishness in one paragraph.

Chris: The essence of science and western civilization is the willingness, nay the outright eagerness, to say, “We don’t know.”

The article I emailed my daughter is here:

As I told my daughter, I can get better accuracy (60% range of probability in the study) with a blindfold and a dartboard.

There should be more happy people.

The truth is that maybe the climate field should take a step back and reconsider its entire assumptions about carbon dioxide and global warming.

I don’t follow this stuff super close but it is promising that they admitted they were wrong and changed their conclusions. I have not heard of of this happening before in climate science.
