This allows, for the first time, continuous monitoring of the temperature, salinity, and velocity of the upper ocean, with all data being relayed and made publicly available within hours after collection.<br />~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ <br /><br />I'm not sure what "Statistical Choss" refers to - but just saying one believes they are a bunch of liars doesn't make them so, particularly when it's obvious dude hasn't taken any time to learn anything about the various methods for observing our oceans and their temperatures, among other readings. <br /><br />Sounds to me like dude's just flailing at something he resents for personal reasons, like a fear/faith that the results will mean the end to his life-style and I suspect it's because of such extreme fears, that such folk refuse to honesty learn about what these instruments are actually recording and what scientists are reporting.<br /><br /><b>Why do so many consider learning about our planet a bad thing?</b><br /><br />As for ocean temperatures, here's an interesting lecture, hopefully it can inspire some to learn more:<br /><br />135 Years of Global Ocean Warming - Perspectives on Ocean Science<br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aIayxdrX17gcitizenschallengehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04559990934735912814noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3692282252844489453.post-9447685129575934772013-12-15T07:15:09.927-08:002013-12-15T07:15:09.927-08:00This is the type of comment I'm tempted to del...This is the type of comment I'm tempted to delete since it's basically an empty rant. NO actual information was shared, NO references to support the wild claims, NO coherent argument presented.<br /><br />It's as though just because the dude doesn't like what scientists are reporting, dude's just positive they are liars and I'm sure committed to taking away his god-given freedoms… or something like that.<br /><br />Science really isn't the cartoon that character's like this claim it is. But, how would they know - they've already written it off and refuse to learn about it - so we are all stuck.citizenschallengehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04559990934735912814noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3692282252844489453.post-79234786185543857122013-12-14T14:33:39.128-08:002013-12-14T14:33:39.128-08:00Yupp, in a very, very, VERY long time, no doubt, s...Yupp, in a very, very, VERY long time, no doubt, since NOAA's 'Deep Ocean' arrays have only detected +0.06 degree warming based on a very NON-spatially dispersed array and well within the MARGIN OF ERROR of the sampling equipment, therefore, STATISTICAL CHOSS. So let's draw ALARMIST transects off GIGO data, then let's set up a taxpayer-looted DEW Line and hire more Mil.Gov.Sci.Edu drones to monitor what they failed to with the $88B of our last life savings already thrown at their clumb feet.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
