State of the Oceans - Better Watch Out!

 Air have anything to do with the world's heat energy?  The physics says no.

This is the main bone of contention between 'The Physics' and the weather fantasy people.  They think the air drives the ocean currents, and air controls everything.  Impossible with physics.

Water holds 4000 times the heat than the equivalent volume of air.  I wish somebody would actually calculate that value.  The oceans control our heat balance, and have been doing that since the beginning of life.  All of this is a hypothesis which can easily be tested, but never will. 


So, we use ocean temperatures.  Without any water, the air is like a desert, a huge flip during a full day.  Water is much more stable.  The world temperature, directly related to heat energy, is down.



The North Atlantic is a huge area, and it is down.  The very top, over the UK, is warm, due to an active Gulf Stream.  That controls the European Gate for Arctic spills.  


This is the Gulf of Maine which is the main indicator of North American heat energy.  Down


The gulfmex controls our snow falling on Toronto.  It is way up, and keeps sending up warm, moist air, which keeps getting squeezed by Arctic spills, and spilling up the GS to Europe.  


Finally, we have most important thermometer of the world, the Nino zone.  When it is up, the world is warm, due to a horribly complex mechanism.


The equatorial belts are cold.




The GS is very active, but the Pacific Belt is going to its stumpy form.  The only thing interesting here is when you have a heating event.  Then, for a day or two, you have this most amazing laminar flow, without a speck of turbulence, as all the heat gathers and then goes into the atmosphere.  Oh, to have one of those again!
