| Abstract: |
This will address:
The observational-based estimates of the ocean uptake of heat show that the World Oceans have warmed over the last 50 years (Levitus et al., 2000, 2001). Superimposed on the warming, basin-scale decadal variations in the ocean heat content are evident. The decadal scale variability of the ocean warming is, however, poorly understood. |
