New paper finds Arctic Ocean warming is from geothermal heat
The Hockey Schtick

April 6,2012

EXCERPT:

A paper published today in Geophysical Research Letters titled "The Arctic Ocean warms from below" finds that geothermal heat at the bottom of the Arctic Ocean caused slight warming of 0.004C per year from 1993-2010. The authors find a temperature inversion with higher temperatures at the bottom of the ocean than the interior, which indicates the heat had to arise from geothermal sources; the opposite temperature profile would be expected if the Arctic Ocean was heating from above due to greenhouse gases. Other than the fact that heat rises, the paper throws more water on Trenberth's claim that his 'missing heat' allegedly from greenhouse gases has sunken to the bottom of the ocean.

How long have I been going on about the Gakkel Ridge.....

At last, is all I can say.

When I get time I will find a link to the appropriate thread here on the forum, we have discussed this before. Dare I say, in some depth....lol
The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed
(and hence clamorous to be led to safety)
by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.

The hobgoblins have to be imaginary so that
"they" can offer their solutions, not THE solutions.

That is why I posted the article.
