editDescriptionOcean warming continues in 2021 (Copernicus).jpg |
English: Climate Change is causing a warming of the oceans. According to a study recently published in the Advances in Atmospheric Sciences scientific journal, 2021 saw a heat record for the first 2,000 meters of depth of all oceans around the world. This occurred despite an ongoing La Niña event, a periodic climatic feature that cools waters in the Pacific. The second hottest year for oceans was 2020, while the third hottest was 2019 since records began in 1955. This image depicts the ocean sea temperature in the Atlantic Ocean. The data have been produced by the Copernicus Marine Environment Monitoring Service and show the forecast for 16 January 2022 at 16:00 UTC. The Copernicus Marine Environment Monitoring Service (CMEMS) provides oceanographic products and services for maritime safety, coastal and marine environment monitoring, climate and weather forecasting, and marine resource uses. The CMEMS portfolio includes more than 170 products that are obtained using a combination of in situ ocean observations, remote sensing satellite images provided by Copernicus Sentinels and contributing missions, and ocean forecast models which are run on a daily basis, a few of them every four hours. |
