"That is as expected: <"Our research revealed warming of the planet can be clearly detected since 1873 and that our oceans continue to absorb the great majority of this heat," > The heat capacity of the oceans is stupendously huge and that of the atmosphere relatively minuscule, so it would be very surprising if the heat did not go into the ocean for the most part."

So we agree that the oceans and the planet are warming.
Why, do you suppose? Moved closer to the sun? Nope. Increased solar activity? Nope. Isthmus of Panama reopened? Nope. The Milankovitch cycles? Not this time. One new undersea volcano/ square mile of ocean floor? Nope. Decreasing cosmic wind chill factor? LMAO. Waves moving faster, increasing the heat of friction? ILSHIAPIMP.
