Study shows ocean warming

摘要

The world's ocean has warmed since 1993, indicating a strong climate change signal, according to a new study. The energy stored is enough to power nearly 500 100-watt light bulbs per each of the roughly 6.7 billion people on the planet.rn"We are seeing the global ocean store more heat than it gives off," said John Lyman, an oceanographer at the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's (NOAA) Joint Institute for Marine and Atmospheric Research, who led an international team of scientists that analysed nine different estimates of heat content in the upper ocean from 1993 to 2008.
