I think the warming trend is pretty much agreed upon; the dispute is over the cause. Some say greenhouse gases, others a natural cycle. I haven't seen enough evidence to be convinced by either, but I don't like the idea of dismissing the former contention out of hand because it is economically inconvenient. Nor do I like the idea of dismissing the latter contention out of hand because it is politically incorrect.

I could probably learn enough to form a coherent opinion if I had time to read more of the research - the rancor poster here is unlikely to convince me in either direction. But I don't have the time, or, in all honesty, the inclination.

Joan, fascinating article. Thanks for bringing it! Deep ocean currents, eddies, and thermal gradients are a very little known or studied area. And I believe most people would be surprised to learn many areas of the deep sea still remain uncharted today. My instinct tells me they lie at the heart of developing accurate climate models.

I will follow this theory with interest.

Thanks again.

Michael
