New comparison of ocean temperatures reveals rise over the last century Date: April 1, 2012 Source: Scripps Institute of Oceanography Summary: A new study contrasting ocean temperature readings of the 1870s with temperatures of the modern seas reveals an upward trend of global ocean warming spanning at least 100 years. The research shows a .33-degree Celsius (.59-degree Fahrenheit) average increase in the upper portions of the ocean to 700 meters (2,300 feet) depth. Modern data is derived from the international Argo program. sciencedaily.com

That heat content isn't temperature LOL, too dumb… FYI here's the definition of heat content. Definition and measurement[ edit]Ocean heat content is defined as: [2] - water density, - sea water specific heat capacity, h2 - bottom depth, h1 - top depth, - temperature profile. I'm sure with your vast engineering background, you know what that squiggly symbol is and what the T stands for. BTW 93.4% of global warming is going to the oceans. Which is why the ENSO index is swinging ever so wildly in recent years.
