Increases the Heat in the Water: Evidence of Global Warming

The world's oceans are warmer this summer than ever.

The U.S. National Climatic Data Center, the government agency that keeps records of weather, said that the average global ocean temperature was 17 Celsius in July (62.6 º F).It is the highest temperature since the beginning of the measurements taken in 1880. The previous record was in 1998.

Meteorologists attributed to a combination of the weather patterns of El Niño and global warming caused by humans. The warmer water could join the melting of polar ice and possibly intensify some earthquakes.

The result has delighted many bathers in Maine waters with pleasant temperatures of 22 degrees (72 degrees F).Ocean temperatures reached 31 degrees (88 º F) to Ocean City, Maryland, this weekend.

The Gulf of Mexico, where the temperate waters fuel hurricanes, has temperatures of around 32 degrees (90 degrees F). Most of the waters in the northern hemisphere has been considerably warmer than normal. The Mediterranean is about 2 degrees (3 º F) warmer than normal. Arreciado high temperatures in the Pacific and Indian oceans.

Is most noticeable near the Arctic, where water temperatures are nearly 5 degrees (9 degrees F) above normal.

The record heat in water is a more ominous sign of global warming on land records. That is because the water takes longer to heat and cool is not so easily explained scientist Andrew Weaver of the University of Victoria in British Columbia.

`` This is another important indicator of change is happening ‘he added.
